Creating a Basemap Layer by right-clicking on a data frame opens a fly-out menu and has the New Basemap Layer option. I thought this was going to really help us out as three-quarters of the mapping extents and data extents used in my group is county-wide. So some of our more encumbering layers (centerlines, parcels, etc) were perfect for this layer as ESRI indicates that is uses a "high-performance drawing engine".
Well, it definitely performs well and we all got excited but when we tried to export the file out to PDF it mangled (heavily bitmapped or rasterized) the display of everything within the Basemap Layer. Once I took it out it exported correctly. A search of the issue resulted in no hits. Nothing in documentation or help either. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks, and it's FRIDAY!
