You can make sure your fonts are embedded, but that may not help with Calibri. It is a known problem with exported pdfs.

I just got a confirmation that it may not be me, or even the code per se, but there may be a bug in ArcGIS causing the exported geotiff to be distorted. So I guess you can skip trying the code out. Sorry.

This probably won't help but since you aren't getting any answers I'll offer it as something you might fiddle with. This is python window code I got from the 10.1 beta forums for exporting to a georeferenced tif. It is for the Data Driven Pages although that is easy to set up even for one a single export. You would substitute your map document name, data frame name and paths. My problem is I can't get it to produce a properly georeferenced tif from layout or view (although it seems to do either equally well); it is in the right "location but slightly rotated and compressed E-W. I figure the problem is mine, however, so you might make it work. I just noticed that when this is posted it makes no sense, the indents are lost and the word wrapping is odd. So I'll separate the lines to deal with word wrapping, and note that the two lines after the statement beginning with "for" should be indented to work; one beginning with mxd and the other with arcpy. The third and last line after the for statement is not indented and it begins with del. import arcpy mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"C:\GIS\Moxie\a_maps_covertype testDDP_Mapbook_covertype_2010_anno.mxd") df = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd, "Layers")[0] for pageNum in range(1, mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageCount + 1): mxd.dataDrivenPages.currentPageID = pageNum arcpy.mapping.ExportToTIFF(mxd, r"C:\GIS\Moxie\a_maps_covertype\testDDP_Mapbook_covertype_2010_anno_Page" + str(pageNum) + ".tif", df, df_export_width=6119, df_export_height=5706, geoTIFF_tags=True) del mxd

I can't really tell from the diagram what you are cutting let alone the specific problem, but given the nature of the road polygons it's possible while you are cutting completely across a polygon at one location somewhere else the polygon remains connected.

Not a direct answer to your question but you might Google on vector vs raster data in GIS. For example here's a quick summary: http://bgis.sanbi.org/gis-primer/page_19.htm or http://courses.washington.edu/gis250/lessons/raster_analysis1/index.html

I thought I'd run some tests on my computers to see how this worked in case I ever wanted to use 10 for real work. Printing to pdf (Acrobat 😎 from ArcMap 10 actually produced a larger file size in my test than an export to pdf, although both were larger than the same export from 9.3.1. Printing to pdf (Acrobat 9) from 9.3.1 produced a file size almost the same as printing to pdf from 10. I then used Acrobat Pro 9 to optimize the pdfs and in the case of exports it reduced the file size to about 40% of the original; in the case of the print to pdfs about 60%. This isn't much of a test, and the problem of machine specific variations in ArcGIS (and probably Adobe) makes it even less useful. Changing the distiller settings didn't have much of an impact but changing ArcMap's export options sure did. So other than suggesting that you check your settings to see if something got changed, or your layers to see if something changed to cause rasterization, I can't offer much other than suggesting as a work around that you use Acrobat to optimize your exported pdfs. You can always try the old boilerplate approach of renaming your template which can be especially useful when changing versions. You might try one of the free pdf printers, like Bullzip, to see if the problem is Acrobat.

I can't understand why you couldn't create polygons with 9.3, let alone 10. 10 works differently than 9x so you might type create new features in the Desktop Help search box (or create new features in ArcGIS 10 in a Google search) and check out the results. 10 also causes some third party programs and scripts to fail, which may explain why your other program fails. If you still have problems I'd contact ESRI tech support.

Given that any unknown might abut multiple type polys, it might be something you will want to do manually by selecting the two polys and then merging to the typed poly. But if an automatic process will do and save you a lot of work, you might select all unknown polys and then run an Eliminate. You do have some options for the selection method which you can get from the tool help.

Since you have ET you might try a Clean polygon wizard with the option of a point feature for the overlaps. You might then join that back to the polygons to show the number of overlapping polys in each location.

Without knowing what you need to retain or how your data looks, I can't go much further than suggest checking out the following which favors shapes over attributes. First though might be to see if the Integrate tool (you might have to vary the cluster tolerance too see what works, do this on copies to avoid messing up your original data) can fix things. Planarize. Second thought might be to take your most accurate road layer and copy it into a new feature class. Buffer it with squared edges and then use that to erase from your next favored roads layer. Select the remaining roads in that layer and copy and paste them into the new layer. Repeat process until you've done them all. You might be able to use a select by location instead of buffer to get the overlapping, then switch the selection before adding to the new layer. You would still have to go back to make sure all the roads are continuous where different layers meet, but perhaps running the Integrate tool at this point can get most of those. Third thought would be to check out this interesting thread on averaging lines if the accuracy of the different layers is all over the place: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/26757-quot-Averaging-quot-lines?highlight=GPS+averaging+lines

I would agree with Darren. If you find all your lines seem to have duplicates, you might consider running a planarize on your feature class perhaps using a copy in case you don't like the results at some point. The Feature to Line tool applied to a polygon feature class, for instance, produces duplicate lines due to the coincident geometry of the polygons. So to edit the lines I planarize first. I'm not sure how CAD programs do things but I have gotten some over the years filled with duplicate lines.

I think this is what you want if you aren't used to editing. If it's complex then I misunderstood the problem. Turn on snapping for vertices to the point layer. Select line, choose modify feature for your task, hover the mouse over the vertice until it changes with a rectangular shape (not the crosshair which would move the whole selection), click and move the vertice to the point and it should snap in place. If you are using 10 the process may be slightly different depending on your snapping and feature template settings. On my test install of 10 I'm using the classic versions of both.
