Overview

ArcPress for ArcGIS is a print rasterizer for fast, high-quality printing of maps. ArcPress for ArcGIS transforms maps into the native language format of your printer.

Because ArcPress for ArcGIS does all its processing on your computer, you do not need to rely on the printer to interpret, translate, and store data. ArcPress for ArcGIS allows printers to do what they do best—print.

With ArcPress for ArcGIS, you can

• Save money, since there is no need to employ printers with extended memory, hard disks, or onboard PostScript processors.
• Print high-quality, large-format maps faster.

Note: Beginning with the release of ArcGIS 9.1, the functionality of ArcPress for ArcGIS is included in ArcView, ArcEditor, and ArcInfo. You no longer need to purchase a separate license.
