batch create multiple PDF maps

JinfengZhao — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 01:15:42 GMT

Hello all,

I have one layer which attribute table has many fields such as male, female, age groups, ethnicity groups. I need to map each field (variable) into a PDF map, and all maps have same extent. I am using ArcGIS 10. Can anyone point me to a Python script that can solve similar problem? Thanks.

Regards,
Jinfeng

the second topic) of this blog-post could be of interest to you. It tells you how to "create a thematic atlas with multiple pages specifying a different theme on each page", with sample python code.
