I have a question for you and what is the best practice for me to copy the legend from another ArcMap A to ArcMap B. They are in the Layout View. it has different scale like in 1: 70,000 to 1:55, 000 without having to adjust the legend ?
So here is the example of what I am talking about here:
ArcMap A (36x36 )
Layout View ArcMap B ( 36x44)
Layout View
Scale : 1: 70,000 -----------------> Scale : 1:55, 000
So the legend from the 70,000 seem to be bigger than the 55,000 and when I resize it to meet the same as the 55,,00 it seems that the symbol gets smaller and the symbol changes. I had to fix it and try to resize the symbols however it is not what I wanted.
What is the method or a way around to fix this ?
P.S. ( As of 28 MARCH 2018)
I found out that when I copy and paste with different scale BUT the paper size is different...
So when I copy from ArcMap A and paste to ArcMap B... The paper size is different ...
Because when you copy , the legend becomes smaller and hard to read, is there a solution to make this fix ?
Has anyone ever done like this in the past and if so what is the solution to it ?
I have had issues with scaling of copied features if the layouts are not at the same scale. So, zoom map layout 1 to max extent and copy the feature in question. then go to map layout 2, and zoom to the same map extent before pasting the feature.
Best regards,
Jim
