Hi Michael I decided to start again & check as I go....Imported pdf, cropped it fine, tried to print & nothing. I've spent an hour (!) trying different things & printer settings. I have printed a pdf before so know it can be done on my kit. Any thoughts? Apologies for being such a beginner! PS I don't know what you mean when you were explaining about pdf being referenced vs imported..don't know what caching a file is...despite googling 😐

Thank you. While I've got you, Michael....I imported a pdf drawing of a floorplan. I have been using it to draw on top ( created another layer...hope that's right). All going fine until my pdf disappeared, leaving me with a half finished new plan. I've tried to find it, to no avail. Thinking I accidentally deleted? Do I need to start from scratch?

....I have mastered some symbol making & now have the beginnings of my own electrical library (Hooray!). Another question....I don't have the Resource Browser Palette & can't seem to find where it might be. Is it now part of Resource manager in 2020? Thanks!

I'm surprised I'd have to make the most common symbols (sockets, switch plates, downlights etc)...surely everyone needs these? I don't know yet how to make new symbols, but sure I can learn! Any advice is appreciated.

Hello I'm new to Vectorworks & this is my first forum post. Can anyone help with explaining where to find a good selection of electrical symbols to use on a residential plan (for the electrician to work from). I found a handful in Libraries but not what I need. Thank you for helping with what I'm sure is a very basic question!
