Greetings,
I use the "Export to KML" tool quite a bit. When I looked at the raw KML file in NotePad, I noticed that the Longitudes are carried out to 13 decimal places and the Latitudes out to 14 decimal places as shown below:

I really don't need that degree of precision; just six decimal places would suit me fine (and it would reduce file size quite a bit).
QUESTION: Where do I tell ArcMap to reduce the number of decimal places?
Thanks,
