shrug-l: Exporting ArcMap document for use in Adobe Illustrator

[Tim Spivey]

Nonie -

Just out of curiosity, and as a Mac user frustrated by Windows' color
handling, how do you (or DO you) get a closer match between color
on-screen and output? I have to maintain a set of map books for each
printer (Canon, Savin, Epson) because output color differs so much
between devices.

As to your question, I just work within the limitations of ArcMap,
constantly reminded of its graphics design weaknesses.
You're probably aware that ArcMap 9.1 (at least) comes with the ArcPress
ripper.

Hello all - I'm requesting your opinions here. 

We have a need to manipulate our maps graphically beyond what ArcMap can
do. 
(Or - what it can do - software that is specifically for graphics can do
better/faster/more efficiently)

Do  any of the rest of you use something besides an ESRI product to
manipulate your maps? 
If so - what? 

If you have a graphics program - do you then use any other software,
like the Avenza products - as a "bridge" between the two? 

Thank you,
