Map Series Export for EPS + SVG

I would like to request that ArcGIS Pro support exporting a Map Series to EPS & SVG formats.

 

There is a need to create multiple documents in a vector format. Specifically for us it is to create signage for our park district and we are creating 100 unique you are here sign maps for each park. The current workaround is to manually or use automation to convert pdf to eps after exporting to pdf with ArcGIS Pro.

 

If anyone knows of a workaround way to use python to manually switch between each page of a map series and export each one as an EPS inside a for loop, I would also be interested in learning that. I am familiar with arcpy.mp, but I'm just not sure how I would go through each page and set it as the active layout in order to export that active page layout. @JeffBarrette any idea if this workaround is possible?

 

Thank you

Hi @BrettFrahm,

Look at sample script #2 (at the bottom) in https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/arcpy/mapping/mapseries-class.htm

 

You just need to change the PNG to one of your formats.

Let me know if this helps.

@JeffBarrette Aw yep that should do it. Not sure how I missed that when I went through documentation. thanks Jeff.

 

Idea still valid though.
