I use adobe illustrator but I just open the file using that programme.

in illustrator do you have to resize the pics? or you cut one by one, like the knobs for ex?

The dimensions are correct. I just copy and paste of the main doc. If I have the same style knob in a different size I just resize the knob to the desired size.

Do you copy from the pdf original file or do u copy after opening the pdf on ilustrator? I cannot select every part i dividually! It opens the whole pdf as one big pucture! Sorry im not used to ilustrator.
Thanks for your help mate!

In Inkscape, you simply double click on the part you want (knob, enclosure) etc....and 90% of the time it will select the part you want.  You can drag/drop or copy/paste it after that.  If you are having trouble selecting the entire part you can hold SHIFT or CNTL in addition to the click and it should work OK.  Sometimes its a bit weird but usually works just fine.
