Yes, you can freely use them in other programs.

Keep in mind that you can't legally distribute the symbols however, only finished maps with them in it, so make sure any other programs don't embed the artwork itself in the map, you can't distribute files where someone would be able to extract the symbols from them again.

Tomorrow at 18:00 CET will be yet another live mapping session, this time by me.

I will be having a look at how to mix mapping styles, as well as use tools such as offset and symbols along to create nice railroad lines.

Didn't own the original Elite, so I haven't played it much, just a few hours with a friend. But I spent countless hours in Elite 2 (Well, not as many as I've spent in E:D). Feel free to look me up in game, I am Cmdr Remy Monsen there. I am usually a bit on and off, playing in periods.

WFRP 1st ed was actually the first RPG I ever played, but we didn't end up playing much with the guy owning it, and soon ended up buying AD&D 2nd ed ourselves which has been my groups main game since.
