Hi Geoff You are correct that arcpy.mapping is the solution for batch export, and the one we recommend for Esri Production Mapping customers. More info here...

Thanks Jill. I hope this is fixed for you soon.

Hi Jill I am also seeing the issues with the GeoRef coordinates. I would suggest that you go ahead and submit this issue to Tech Support. I would describe the issue as follows: Make Grids And Graticules Layer GP does not create the correct GeoRef coordinates. GeoRef grid annotation text strings both are incorrect & incomplete. If you have sample grid XML, you will want to submit that as well. Please let me know once you receive a support issue number, and I can then forward my results to Tech Support as well. Thanks for reporting this issue. Regards, Bo

Hi Malik Perhaps the easiest way to remove the Zurich fonts from the map template is to first remove all Zurich fonts from your machine. If you are using a Windows OS, the fonts should then default to Arial for both labels and graphic text on the map template. You may want to check the label expressions on a few layers to confirm the fonts defaulted to Arial. The Create Rapid Graphic tool also creates feature grids and associated grid annotation. Most of the Esri Defense Mapping grid XMLs are designed to use Zurich fonts, as defined in the related product specifications. The grid anno should also default to Arial when the Zurich fonts are not on the machine. Please give the workflow above a try and let me know your results. If you have additional questions, reply here, or post them to the Esri Defense Mapping page. Thanks. Regards, Bo defense mapping esri defense mapping Esri Defense Mapping

Hi Paul Thanks for your question. The Create Contours tool was designed to generate features for the products supported in Esri Defense Mapping. For example, if you are building a Topographic Map (TM) using TDS data, you would use the HypsographyCurves feature class found in the TDS database schema. The TDS database can be found in the installed product files: <install directory>\ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.6\Tds\Schema If you have additional questions, reply here, or post them to the Esri Defense Mapping page. Thanks. Regards, Bo defense mapping‌ esri defense mapping‌ Esri Defense Mapping‌

Hi Jill No, the GeoRef coordinates are not widely used. I will have to do some testing to verify the incorrect coordinates issue. In the mean time, what versions of ArcMap and Production Mapping are you using? Thanks for your patience while I investigate. Regards, Bo

Hi Kamal Please describe the steps you follow for exporting the map, including the file type and settings. Please also provide the Esri Production Mapping version and build number. To find the Esri Production Mapping version: Open ArcMap > Customize > Extensions… Select Production Mapping Description contains the version & build number Thanks, Bo

‎08-01-2018

Hi Kamal Thanks for your question. I will need a little more information in order to assist with your issue. Are you using ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro? What version? What is the Esri Production Mapping version and build number? What tool are you using for the conversion? Also, I am not familiar with the SHXE file extension, but it sounds like it might be an AutoCAD Compiled Shape File (SHX). If so, have you tried converting to SHP before working with this data? Thanks, Bo

Hi Iro We do not support TDS to MGCP, however, we do support the more common workflow of MGCP to TDS. You can find a variety of cross-reference database files in the TDS Data Conversion folder: <install>ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.x\Tds\DataConversion Data can be loaded using the Preload Validate and Data Loader tools on the Production Mapping toolbar in ArcCatalog. Regards, Bo

Hi Iro The TDS schema (6.0) is now intended for all scales. This latest 6.0 version supersedes the older 5.0 versions for individual scales (Global, Regional, Local, Urban). There in no reason to continue using the older versions for collection or production. Regards, Bo

Hi Iro The TDS_ICM schema is a subset of the TDS schema that can be used to build ICMs using the ICM_TDS map templates. Regards, Bo
