Re sizing Symbols.
I am new to CC3 and I have a question about re sizing symbols. I am working on a larger map about 9000x4500 and the symbols I find are just too large for me. I want to resize them but aside from using the resize tool on every single symbol then having to redraw the map every time is there any thing else I can do thats faster and easier? Thanks.

Or I did not understood your question?
If the symbols are already placed, you just change size, select them all and do it.
When you set up a template, it does set the default symbol size -- which is usually pretty close to (if not exactly at) the scale I usually want.
Maybe we don't understand the question or where you are in the process.

If you just need to have new symbols you place smaller, simply right click before placing the symbol, and set a smaller value for the scale. This value will affect all feature symbols you place until you either change this value, or you restart CC3, or you load a new map.
From the drawing properties dialog, you can also set a default symbol scale which will be loaded each time you load this particular map.
1) Not try numbers greater then 10k x 10k,
2) Not put a very high antialias (as it does not have a huge impact, better to put a hieger definition)
3) Put the numbers in proporsion to your map. Mine was a 2 x 1 on this screen.
Note that jpg is lossy. PNG and bmp are better.
I use Irfanview to convert my PNGs and BMPs, and to make thumbnails of the graphic files.
I just realized... is the website/browser saying the file is corrupt ? Your uploading software saying the file is corrupt ?
I haven't had that kind of error and I've been using CC since CC2 years ago.
