Importing Sybols and Fills from Annuals to a New Template

Kathleen Ann Cox

Hello,

I hope I am posting in the right category.

I have all the annuals since 1. I wanted to combine the drawing tools and symbols from Issues 116, 119, & 120 based on the TJ Vandel style into a single template for ease of use. Any advice or guidance on the best way to do accomplish this goal? Do I even need to do this or is there an easier way? I just tried to do it importing them via absolute path which seems like it sort of works, but what I really want is to have catalogs including an "all" option.

I own the Tome of Ultimate Mapping and all the annuals so if the answer can be found there or in the help manual, I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

Thanks!

If I was attempting to merge several styles in a reusable fashion like that I would probably make myself a new template. The instructions on how to do that can be found on page 153 of the Tome, under "Creating Map Styles and Templates".
