electrical switch and cover plates

Post by metalworxfabricators »

Could someone tell me how to go about adding decorative designs to switch and outlet dxf files. What program or steps are required?

Thank You

Basically any CAD program can do it, some easier than others. What are you using right now? With PlasmaCAM's DesignEdge I import the files I want to combine and then put them together. Corel and others can do the same thing, just may be a little different way of doing it. I'm most familiar with DesignEdge however.
