Re: ANSI Z535 Graphics/Label Design

2008-05-09 Thread Arthur Michael

Hello Rick,

It has taken me a while to re-locate this valuable resource. St. Claire, 
Inc. offers their web-based Safety Sign Builder 2.0 at no cost other than 
a simple registration  a request for a donation once you have logged-in. 
It's very useful and enables on to design ANSI or OSHA safety signs in 
English, Spanish and French.

I've mounted their link in the Safety Link's EHS  OHS Resources section 
at:

www.safetylink.com/resources/ergonomics-occupational-health-resources/

The abovmentioned resource is the sixth link in that section.

Best regards,
Art Michael, Webmaster of the Safety Link

  The Safety Link is the most comprehensive collection
  of product safety and standards resources on the WEB.
   Nearly one million visitors can't be wrong!

You can see examples of most of the symbols at several of the more reputable
label suppliers' web sites.  Also, if you are aware of a company that makes
similar equipment that has the same type of labeling requirements, most
symbols are recreated in manuals for that equipment, to give you a flavor of
what's required.

The standard would be a necessity, though, for final design.

The symbols produced by standards organizations are copyright, but 
normally you have a free license to extract them from the standards 
publication and use them for their intended purpose. That doesn't apply, 
of course, to the symbols in illustrated catalogs of safety-sign 
suppliers.
