I have a shp file of a map, each polygon has a name as a label and I want to print to pdf but all the labels do not show or print..
Can you provide a screen shot of what you are experiencing?
this is screenshot in arc and this is what prints and exports to pdf
I'm wanting a name in each polygon, I can zoom in and it will fill polygons but I need to have entire map in pdf then zoom in to read names
If you want to force the labels to appear you can change the setting using this tool
