Most of these electronic symbols (Electronic8-LCAD)
are similar to the Philips-Mullard format that was in
use from 1970 to 1990 and most are still in use today.

Files were originally created as part of a college
project (Electronic1, 2006) using AutoCAD, but they
have been re-worked and saved using LibreCAD to ensure
compatibility with QCAD, LibreCAD, and FOSS (Free
Open-Source Software).

Once installed, this Part Library can be viewed with
the Library Browser so that parts can be inserted into
your drawings (start LibreCAD, then
select: "View > Toolbars > Library Browser"). On
insertion, each part is converted into a block which
can be re-inserted many times.

WARNING: though these DXF files have been tested,
scanned and re-worked in a Linux environment, we cannot
guarantee that they will be entirely free from
malicious code which could destroy your data or damage
your computer system.

The easiest method of installation, which does not
require Administrator or root privileges, is to create
a new folder named "library" on your Desktop or in your
Documents. After downloading any of these Part Libraries,
unzip (Extract) them into the new "library" folder, then
go up a level, right-click on the folder's icon and
select "Properties". The path to this
folder (Location) should be something similar to
"C:\Documents and Settings\Guest\Desktop" or
"/home/guest/Documents", therefore the full path to the
unzipped Part Libraries within it would be
"C:\Documents and Settings\Guest\Desktop\library\" or
"/home/guest/Documents/library/" (remember to include
the final "\" or "/" after "library"). Make a note of
this full path, Restore LibreCAD,
select: "Edit > Application Preferences > Paths",
type the full path into the box marked "Part Libraries",
select "OK", then re-start LibreCAD.

As the GPL states, parts are supplied without any Warranty
but with some hope that they may be useful.
