They are not maintained as individual vector layers in the output PDF document. This results in options specific to vector data, such as Layers and attributes , being unavailable. Embed color profile. Include the color profile set for the map or layout in the exported file. This helps create consistency in colors when the file is viewed on different devices. If the profile is not embedded, or a non-color-managed viewer is used, the colors may be significantly different than what is seen on-screen.
This option is only available when color management is enabled. This may cause some colors to appear differently when viewing the exported file. The Security tab contains options relating to the security of the PDF export, including password protection and restricting editing capabilities. Set a password that must be entered before you or others can view the exported file.
Set a password that must be entered before you or others can edit or be granted permissions on the exported file. Allow screen readers to access the text in the exported file and read it aloud.
Set the print quality allowed, or restrict printing of the exported file. Set the type of editing allowed on the exported file. The Accessibility tab contains options for writing a tagged PDF document, which can be read by screen readers or other assistive technology. A tagged PDF document can include alt text—a text description of a graphic element that a screen reader uses to describe the element—for map frames, pictures, and chart frames.
Alt text is added in the Element Pane for each element. Tagged PDF documents are currently only available for layout exports. Output a tagged PDF document where text can be read by screen readers or other assistive technology. Alt text for layout elements is not included in the PDF document unless this option is checked. Set the title of the document. This will be displayed when the document is opened. Set the language of the text in the document so a screen reader can interpret it correctly.
If the map or layout is in multiple languages, additional post-processing may be required to set the language appropriately for individual text elements. Include a brief overview of what the document is about. Include the document author. According to some accessibility guidelines, this should be the office or group producing the document and not an individual person. They are not specific to a tagged PDF document and are included even if Include accessibility tags is not checked.

Export a map to PDF format and note the export file's location on disk. PDF files exported from ArcMap can include advanced functionality in addition to their usage as a graphic interchange format.
PDF files can contain layers from the ArcMap table of contents so that users can enable and disable the visibility of layers and graphic elements on the PDF page. PDF files exported from ArcMap can also include attributes for GIS features as well as georeference information for each map data frame. Anyone viewing the PDF document in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat can use the Acrobat Analysis tools to inspect feature attributes and look up and identify geographic coordinates.
The following sections contain information about these advanced features and their usage. Most ArcMap table of contents layers, data frames, and layout elements will be included as separate layers in the export.
However, certain types of symbology may affect the presentation of a layer in the finished PDF. The visibility of fields in the feature's attribute table determines what fields will be exported in the resulting PDF.
To turn these fields on and off, go to the Fields tab of the Layer Properties dialog box. The check boxes determine the visibility of the given field. Check or uncheck the check boxes to expose more or fewer attributes in the resultant PDF.
Alternatively, the visibility of the fields can be controlled in the Table window by right-clicking the column heading and choosing the Turn Field Off option:. Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader versions 9 and later allow viewing of map coordinates and georeference information encoded inside the PDF file.
When a document contains multiple maps for example, if a PDF contains a smaller map within a larger map, such as a city within a map of a state or country. When you search for a location within the city, Acrobat finds it in both the larger map and the city map. When a document contains multiple pages of a map for example, if page one is a map of a country and page two is a map of a state or city within the country.
To find a location, click Find A Location. Type the latitude and longitude values, and click Find. When you open a geospatial PDF, the Acrobat measuring tools read the geospatial information and measure distance and area instead of page or object dimensions. Use the measurement tools to calculate distance, perimeter, and area on any geospatially enabled PDF.
As you move the mouse pointer over content in the document, snap markers are shown that indicate that you are on a path or path end point.
You can also see the latitude and longitude of your cursor location when the mouse pointer is over geospatial content. If you are using the Distance tool, click where you want to start the measurement, and then drag to the end point and click again. The distance is displayed in the lower-right corner. If you are using the Perimeter tool, click the map in one corner of the perimeter, and then drag to each corner.
Click at each corner and then double-click at the end point. The information window displays the perimeter size. If you are using the Area tool, click the map at one corner of the area, and then drag to another corner.
Click before changing directions. Double-click at the end to display the total area. To finish the measurement, right-click and select Complete Measurement. Or, select Cancel Measurement. After you find a location on a geospatial PDF, you can copy the coordinates to the clipboard.
From the clipboard, you can paste the data into a web mapping service that reads latitude and longitude coordinates. Acrobat copies the data in this format: latitude then longitude, separated by a space. Paste the data into the address bar of a web mapping service that can interpret the location data.
To change the type of measurement units, right-click inside the map with the Measuring tool and choose Distance Unit or Area Unit. Then select a measurement type. You can change the measurement units for all geospatial PDFs in the Preferences dialog box. Click Measuring Geo from the Categories section.
