Default Symbols held in microsoft programs - geo metric symbols?

I have to complete dimensional reports for a customer using geometric tolerancing.

Currently we manually fill in the forms, but are now being requested for them in excel.

The only problem is the symbols required for this. There is an area in word (Insert - Symbol) that allows you to put in some symbols, but these are limited, with some missing.


Does anyone know of a place where these are available to download?

Cheers,

Andy

To add to the "Insert Symbol" lists, you need to install a GD&T Font to handle the symbols for you. If you want the symbols to show on the customers spreadsheets too, you'll need them to also install the font.

This one any good ?
