Finding More Symbols

Post by **Godot** » Sun Mar 13, 2005 4:56 am

While using the demo, I've found the various symbols in the installed library limiting. Perhaps that's one justification in the higher cost of competing applications of this sort. Where might I find more symbols to add to HighDesign? Symbols such as windows, doors, etc.

I find a lot of symbols on the manufacturer's web sites. Almost all windows and door companies have these symbols in 2-D cad dwg/dxf for free download. Since HD does not support insertion of DWG, you need another program like Sketchup to open the DWG, then transfer it into the dxf format. Another site is Formfonts.com. $11/month gets you 30 models a day... again in sketchup format, but you can open these and convert for HD.
