You can order order Fluid Power Symbols from ISO designated 1219-1 & 1219-2 here:

http://www.iso.org/iso/home.htm

If I remember correctly they can be used in AutoCad.

Eaton offers a free set here:

I have a set that you can see here: http://www.hydraulicspneumatics.com/200/eBooks/Article/True/67859/

Look in Chapter 4. These work in the Drawing portion of MicroSoft Word version 97 and later and can make drawings up to 24 X 36". The file only has "A" and "B" size with Title Blocks.

The symbols can be copied into a Word .doc and make a schematic drawing. The symbols can be manipulated in many ways with the Word drawing program and can have line color changes plus a lot of other modifications.

I use the symbols o make color coded schematic of Fluid Power circuits that gives an explanation of how the circuit performs during a typical cycle. This documentation makes it easy for the typical maintenance person, who seldom works on Fluid Power circuits, to more easily trouble shoot an inoperative machine circuit.

I can send a set of symbols to anyones email address. It is a 294kb Zipped file and has all the symbols only not the cutaways and other information in Chapter 4 noted above.
