After updating to Pro 3.0.0 I'm noticing an issue with exported map layouts. Exported layouts appear to be fine after exporting to PDF - until I try to insert or compile them into a multi-page PDF using Adobe Acrobat Pro. When inserted into an existing PDF document, the exported layout page shows up completely blank.
My layouts typically contain map elements, text (Tahoma and/or Arial), and png and/or jpeg image files.
The issue remains whether the PDF document contains pages from other sources or is only made of exported map layouts. Oddly - if the document consists only of layout exports, the first page will appear as normal, but any added pages will show up blank, which seems to suggest Adobe is having some kind of issue processing the file. I've tried embedding fonts, not embedding fonts, and exporting as an image, to no avail. I've tried creating a fresh Project file and creating new layouts from scratch to see whether it is an issue related to exporting from the prior Arc Pro version. I've checked Adobe for updates and ran a repair installation - no luck.
The only workaround I have found is to use Print Layout rather than Export Layout, as was suggested in a previous thread addressing a similar issue. It's not ideal, but passable for now. Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a solution?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I saw that when I went to subscribe to that bug. Yes, it worked. Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up - sure enough, the update seems to have cleared the issue up for me as well.
