Okay, here it is. Circles in Illustrator are not my friend. And yet again, I feel like I am taking the really long route to accomplish simple tasks. Hopefully with practice, things will move more quickly. I'm not sure why my country labels are not shown on the map. I labeled them in Arcmap and when I saved it as an ai file they disappeared. The same thing happened with the scale text, except I could click on the area where the text should have been and I was able to change the font and it was viewable. I could not get it to work for the country labels.Wednesday, March 3, 2010

Nice Map Emily. Your legend is very complete and makes for easy interpretation. The contrast of black circles are right on message.
ReplyDeleteDid you update the text when you first opened the file in illustrator? It's something to do with converting ArcView text.
Great job Emily! Like you mentioned, the only thing missing in the labels, but your legend rocks!
