Take a look at the new features and tools you can use with ArcGIS Desktop 9.3.1.
Key Features
ArcReader is a free and easy-to-use application that allows users to view and print maps that are published (as Published Map Files [PMF]) by the ArcGIS Publisher extension to ArcView, ArcEditor, and ArcInfo. PMF files preserve a live connection to the data so the user's data view is always dynamic.
ArcReader significantly increases access to maps throughout all parts of an organization, introducing a new way for individuals and enterprises to share information that was once limited to those with advanced GIS software on their computers.
The key capabilities of ArcReader are
- Zooming in/out
- Panning
- Going to previous/next extent
- Viewing spatial bookmarks
- Viewing and printing preauthored map layouts
- Searching with the Find tool
- Identifying features
- Hyperlink tool
- Measuring features
