Loadable families are the most extensive and customizable families in Vasari. You can create your own custom families, but a number of families are ready for use in the family library and on the Web.
Before you begin a project, use the following workflow to determine whether you can use existing families, or whether you need to create your own custom families.
- Determine the families that your project requires.
- Search existing loadable families and determine whether you can find the families that you need in the library, on the Web, in Vasari templates, or in your office templates.
- If you find an appropriate family but not the specific type that you need, create a new type.
- If you can find families that are similar to the families that you need, save design time by modifying existing families to your needs.
- If you cannot find the families that you need or modify similar families to fit your needs, create your own families.
