you would have to export cp as a dxf file, and you can open it in any cad software, and change the lines' color.

Or if you are a bit geeky:
- export CP as svg.
- edit svg file with a text editor.
- search and replace (without quote) "red" by "black", "blue" by "grey" and "stroke-dasharray: 15, 10;" by nothing (that's to remove the valley-fold dash look).
- save.

For instance, using vi:
:%s/red/black/g
:%s/blue/grey/g
:%s/stroke-dasharray: 15, 10;//g

Guys, I'm having another trouble now. Last time I downloaded oripa file, there was only the jar file. Now there's a whole bunch of other stuff. Here's a pic.

By the look of it, you unzipped oripa035.jar [which is probably the file in the middle of the bottom line, named oripa035 (2,059 kB)]. (A jar file is basically a zip file.)

There is also an unrelated file, chromeinstall-7u55, which should be moved to another place. :)

So, you can safely remove everything in there apart from oripa035.jar, and use it instead of extracting from it, however it is done using Windows.

What do you mean by, "However it is done by using windows"?

I mean, I don't know how to execute a jar file using the Windows operating system. Sorry I was not clear...
Maybe someone using Oripa and Windows can help you?

(After a quick search, it seems that if you installed the proper Java version, it should work by double-clicking on that jar file. If you don't have Java, your system seems to deal with jar file as with zip, i.e. extracting its content.)

If you installed Java 7 and Java3D as stated on Mitani's webpage, does right-clicking on the jar give you an option to execute it?
Maybe try using the command line (a DOS window?) with the command "java -jar oripa035.jar" in the correct folder.

Sorry, I really don't know much about Java within Windows...

Can you check if your .jar file is opening with "Java(TM) Platform SE binary"?

Do this by rightclicking the oripa035.jar file -> Properties. And check if the files opens using Java(TM) Platform SE binary.

Like Kabuntan said, you seemed to have unzipped it. So it is possible that at the properties it says WinRar or 7-Zip (depends on which program you use). Hence the question if you could check it.

Actually, there's also another problem. Whenever Java finishes downloading (It downloads first), it says this:
