Producing multiple PDF plots of mapsheets specified by shapefile key from ArcGIS Desktop?


I'm looking for a product that will produce multiple pdf plots of mapsheets specified by a shapefile key (say, 11 x 17) from ArcGIS 9.3 using a single .mxd template, include and orient a common keymap, etc. The DS Mapbook extension from the ESRI developer samples is one of these, but it's an old VB6 product and am wondering if there's anything else similar, newer and maybe commercially available.



Answer



We use MapLogic Layout Manager, and have for about four or five years. We're able to create some nice map books with this software, and it's much more advanced than the DS Mapbook extension. Since we started using their software we're constantly asked to create new map books for departments. You can find them at MapLogic.
