Default Visio 2003 and the way Microsoft produce their drawings

When I first saw these symbols on a diagram more than a year ago, was told
they were not done in Visio. If you ever do get a copy of the drawing as a
Visio drawing, the shapes can be extracted.

Dont want to kill the debate about "what it was drawn with, but if you
download the Architecture Guide, the diagram is embedded into a word
document as a jpg or sorts so if you guys could "PLEASE" get hold of the
stencil ;-) i think we would all be happy!

Cheers

I would like to know what technique Microsoft use to produce this

diagram.
I have tried everything i can and i cannot make the the connectors route

on
45 degree angle like they are in this drawing. I have tried page

rotation,
i can replicate this by drawing lines, but not using connectors. is there
someway to rotate the grid to do this. we love the way the diagrams look
and would like to replicate this in our work drawings.

Cheers

Michael

I have the CD that the Windows Server team has published with the files, but
I don't know how many people get Windows System Architecture discs. Let me
see if I can figure out how people can get this. I don't think I should be
redistributing that group's property independently.

Almost all the shapes used in that diagram are shipped in the Visio Pro
product. They took advantage of the new 3D-looking network shapes and
incorporated them into an isometric perspective.
