| Map Display |
|
ArcView provides a rich set of map display capabilities. These features allow users to easily build quality maps in many different styles, from basemaps to thematic classifications. In addition, some data sources have more map display capabilities (such as rasters and TINs). ArcView allows all the data to be easily integrated using a projection on-the-fly functionality, which supports the reprojection of the data (both raster and vector) without creating new data or altering existing data. |

- Thematic classifications including single symbol, unique value, match to predefined style, graduated colors or symbols, proportional symbols, dot density mapping, chart mapping including pie and bar chart, and multivariate data rendering
- Image classification including thematic classes, individual band settings, color maps, contrast, brightness, and dynamic statistics based on extent
- TIN data classification including classify and render facts, nodes, triangles, slope, aspect, elevation, and hillshade

| Page Layout and Printing |
ArcView includes a page-centric layout view that allows you to look at your data as it is laid out on the printed page. It gives you the ability to work with maps that contain geographic data views as well as other map elements such as scale bars, legends, north arrows, borders, graticules, map titles, descriptions, and reference maps.

You use the layout view to interactively add and position the appropriate map elements on a map page. Finished maps can be printed or saved and embedded in other published documents. You can save the data and layout views with all its properties as a map document, which you can access later or share with others.
ArcView supports the following capabilities to enable you to build compelling maps:
- Interactive page layout with page interaction tools
- Easy-to-use wizards and tools to insert map elements including title, neatlines, legends, north arrows, scale bars, pictures, OLE objects, measured reference grid (e.g., MGRS), and automatic graticules for latitude and longitude
- Exports the map to
- Enhanced metafile (EMF)
- Windows bit map (BMP)
- Encapsulated PostScript (EPS)
- Tagged image file format (TIFF)
- Portable document format (PDF)
- Joint Photographics Experts Group (JPEG)
- Adobe Illustrator (AI)
- Exports PostScript CMYK color separates (with page marks) Supports standard Windows and PostScript printer drivers

| Map Labeling |
ArcView provides a robust labeling environment. Using ArcView, you can easily define dynamic on-the-fly map labels to be generated based on attributes. These labels are placed using simple conflict detection and placement rules, which allow you to easily create high-quality maps. In addition, you can automatically add attribute driven labels or manually add labels at specific locations.
