Publishers use designs before and after chapters in books. I
understand that these are called wingdings or dingbats.  What I am
looking for are those that are more traditional, more toward
horizontal lines, etc. Can you help?

Hi clear23.

I work in book production, and some of the more traditional dingbat
fonts are found in: Woodtype Ornaments 1 and 2; Rococo 3; and Type
Embellishments 1, 2, and 3. Many of the dingbats in those fonts are
flowery, but there are several classic-looking horizontal dingbats.
Good luck.

Comment received from jasabra-ga is not helpful. I do not understand
where Woodtype Ornaments 1 and 2; Rococo 3: and type Embellishments 1,
2, and 3 are found.  Thanks.

Hi again.

If you Google, e.g., "Type Embellishments 1" all sorts of type foundry
sites (places that create and sell fonts) will be returned. If you're
lucky, you'll find a place that gives them away free, but in all
likelihood, you'll have to pay for the fonts. Once you install them in
your font folder, you can insert them in your Word document or Quark
file.

To more clearly list the names of the fonts, they are:

Woodtype Ornaments 1
Woodtype Ornaments 2
Rococo 3
Type Embellishments 1
Type Embellishments 2
Type Embellishments 3

The repeated names with the changing numbers are dingbats in the same
family (style-wise), but they can't all fit in one character map,
which has a limited amount of space. A character map is a grid that
shows exactly what characters or dingbats are found in a font. This
link, which I found by Googling "Type Embellishments 1," should bring
you to a dingbat character map:
