I fill orders personally, not via an automated process. Therefore, there could be
an hour or more delay. Files are sent as an attachment (~12 MB) to the e-mail
in your PayPal account.
Trust Center Message
Beginning with version 2013, the Trust Center by default blocks files created
in earlier versions. Please see
this article for how to unblock the files.
Missing SP6T Switch Symbol.
The original Switches .vss file was missing the SP6T switch. Please send me an
e-mail if you want a replacement file.
Where to store files?
I recommend creating a new folder titled "RF Electronics Stencils" and then unzipping
the files into it. For versions of Windows through Win10, the path will typically
look like this:
.\Documents\My Shapes\RF Electronics Stencils\
If you are using Visio™ 2013 or later, you might want to re-save the files
in the .vssx and .vsdx XML format since they are typically much smaller.
Page templates
I recommend that you begin by using one of the included Page Template files for
developing your diagram. Some basic information is on the "Hints & Tips"
page to help you get started. Standard A-, B-, and C-size drawing templates (.vsd
files) are provided that come with a Page Scale preset to play well with the supplied
stencil objects. You may, of course, change the page scale to whatever is most convenient
for you. If large changes are made, you might need to re-size text and line widths.
Switches
The position selection pointer has its rotation
axis set on the common "C" terminal so the pointer can easily be made to contact
any of the switch positions.
Component parameters
Rather than attach an electrical parameter set to each stencil, a separate generic
stencil is provided that can be added to shapes and modified as needed. You can
of course add your own text objects to the drawing, just as you can add any other
type of Visio built-in objects.
XML file format
If you are using Visio™ 2013 or later, you might want to re-save the files
in the .vssx and .vsdx XML format since it is typically much smaller.
Security warning?
Visio 2013 and beyond requires additional Security settings to open the Stencils.
Shapes not aligning to grid?
Components are drawn to align to a grid set up for: Page Setup -> Drawing
Scale -> Architectural Scale of 1" = 1' 0".
Colors not appearing properly?
Make certain that the Color Themes are set to "No Theme"

Disclaimer: "RF & Electronics Stencils for Visio™" is offered
AS IS. Your use of this product implies you alone accept responsibility for results

very thoroughly, and there are no known problems at the time of release.
This set of more than 1,000 uniquely designed
RF & Electronics Stencils for Visio™ were built in
Visio™ 2007 and tested in 2019. They use the .vss and .vsd file formats, which
is compatible with Visio™ 2003 up through the most current version.
Every stencil symbol has been built to fit proportionally on the included A-,
B-, and C-size drawing page templates (or use your own page if preferred). Components
are provided for system block diagrams, conceptual drawings, schematics, test equipment,
racks (EIA 19", ETSI 21"), and more.
Test equipment and racks are built at a 1:1 scale so that measurements can be
made directly using Visio built-in dimensioning objects. Page templates are provided
with a preset scale (changeable) for a good presentation that can incorporate all
provided symbols. A look through the stencil sets below testifies to the claim of
completeness, and a consistent appearance will assure a premium quality presentation.
These symbols took many hundreds of hours to create, so the minimal cost can easily
be justified for time they will save you.
Below are screen captures of all the stencil sets provided with RF &
Electronics Schematic & Block Diagram Stencils for Visio™
(r4). Click on the thumbnails for large versions.
