Bob,
Is there any chance you can put your symbols library, or even all of your symbols and drawings, into a single ZIP file for downloading? It's a bit of a PITA to download 100 odd single files individually.
Thanks!

Bob ...
I'm unable to open the Symbols Library ...
Is there a way to get and use these symbols without down loading the
supporting DFW file? It requires over 100MB $pace/time to download with
dial-up.
All we need are the key symbols used in the Z figures since many of those
are repeated throughout. What am I missing besides rapid download
capability?
Thanks ...

My apologies. I'd forgotten about some of the excess baggage in
that directory. I simply zipped the whole thing as-is. I just went through
all the files and dumped the mechanical and composite drawings. I think
the files are 99% pure schematic symbols. The new file is only
425K. Try this:

Thank you Bob ...

Your above link enabled me to download the icons of each file but then I
find I don't have the program to open them. I've spent a lot of time trying
to get to get the solution with no luck.
What is the program title and version and might it be available on ebay?
Thanks for your help ...

Opps! I thought you'd been following the threads on various and
sundry CAD and illustration programs here on the list. What
program had you intended to use? My library was generated in
AutoCAD . . . a very mature software package with a price to
match. However, a number of upstarts have cracked the code for
AutoCAD's native .dwg format so that they too can open, edit,
print and save AutoCAD's files. One such program is TurboCAD.
I just received a copy of V10 purchased off Ebay last week
for about $23 post paid. See:
http://ebay.com and search on "turbocad"
I wish I'd purchased an older version now. There are some 9.2
packages for even less money. What I don't know is how far back
you can go in TurboCAD and still open the drawings I generate
in AutoCAD 2000. I believe someone on the List mentioned an
version older than 10.0 that still worked with my drawings . . .
perhaps he'll jump back in here and enlighten us.
Be aware also that there are a number of wire-books in progress
on my website. See:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/PPS/ACAD Wirebook Samples
One in particular
http://www.aeroelectric.com/PPS/ACAD Wirebook Samples/LAIVP.DWG
is an extensive piece of work I did for a client several years
ago that had to abandon his project and terminate my services.
This drawing has about 90% of the work for your airplane's wire
book already done. Your major task is to find software you're
willing to pay for and then invest the time to learn to use
it as needed to edit the drawing.
I'm going to load up TurboCAD this weekend and play with
it a bit.

That's the old "fat" file. Here's the trimmed file
I posted later:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/PPS/ACAD Symbols Library/0 ACAD All Symbols.zip
Also, be aware that the website is getting some much needed attention
for organization and from time to time, files may move to new folders.
You can always go directly to the folder structures by using the site
index at:
http://aeroelectric.com/Downloads.html
and explore the directories from there. In this case, you
go to "Page per System Drawings" and then to "ACAD Symbols Library"
that will take to the individual symbols and the .zip file of
all symbols cited above.

Bob,
Didn't get a chance to see if TC v 7.0 would open the libray because I got a corruption message when I tried to unzip the symbol file. I've had no trouble opening .dwg's in the past.

Hmmmm . . . I have a recent version of PKZIP.
I wonder if there are any compatibility problems
for un-zipping with older releases. I've considered
making my .zip files self-extracting but this
makes them .exe files which many folks are understandably
concerned about.
Try going to this directory:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/PPS/ACAD Symbols Library
2DIODBLK.DWG is an old symbol originally saved under R14 AutoCAD which
I just opened and re-saved under 2000. The thing jumped from
5K to 25K bytes (ugh!).
The one just below . . . 30SPDTRY.DWG is still in AutoCAD R14.
I'd appreciate it if you'd see how your TCv7.0 handles these
two files.
The Unzip corruption is another issue. I'll poke around on
the 'net and see if we might have a compatibility problem between
releases of PkZip.
Thanks!
Bob . . .

Re corrupted file:
2nd time was the charm. TurboCAD v 7.0 downloaded all the .dwg drawings just fine.
Thanks Bob.

Per my previous response, on the 2nd try, the symbols library file unzipped just fine.
I dragged both symbols, 2DIOBLK.DWG and 30SPDTRY.DWG, into a drawing and they manipulate fine with TurboCAD v 7.0 .
