I'd like to know if there is a way to change the text font for all layers and all label classes within a layer on a MXD.
I use a font not often found on all computers for created maps. I love the font, but it becomes an issue when publishing or sharing MXD's. Usually before I share or publish a MXD I need to go through all the layers and set the font to be something found everywhere.
Personally I'd like if the script auto found layers and label classes withing every layer in the TOC. I'm pretty good with python, but I haven't ever found a way to interact with the label's for a layer within ArcPy.
Does anyone have an idea of how to due this?
Answer
You cannot change font style using arcpy, your options are:
"
" & [LABELFIELD] & " "
"" & [LABELFIELD] & " "ArcObjects - ITextSymbol Interface
I posted a question on this site before, ArcObjects add halo to label, dealing with labels which will give yoiu a general guild for accessing the ITextSymbol interface. You will just need to change the beginning portion of the code to loop through each layer within the map document and add the pFont.Font
property.
