When working with a project-based software tool, you can import XML-based and Isogen ASCII symbol files so that they become part of the active project. The export feature allows you to keep your customized symbol library in an XML- or ASCII-based file format.
In a non-project-based environment, symbols that you create with Symbol Editor must be exported to an XML- or ASCII-based file. You can then import these symbol libraries into Symbol Editor so that individual symbols can be modified and then saved. To use any symbols that you define in Symbol Editor on an isometric drawing generated in a third-party 3D design tool, the symbols must be exported to an Isogen ASCII symbol file.
