Hi,
I've developed a tool to export an MXD to an AXL (ArcIMS)
configuration file. It works on both ArcMap 8 and 9 and does
conversions of all (risky statement...) the symbology of ArcMap (both
for vector and raster & truetype symbols on most supported data
formats).
I have tried to get someone interested in developing an XSL
transformation of these AXL files into MapServer map files, but no
one reacted unfortunately and I do not have the MapServer knowledge
required nor the time to develop these. However, if someone creates
such XSL (even starting with something fairly basic) I would be very
happy to incorporate the functionality as one of the export formats
of the tool.
You can find the tool in the ArcScripts section on the
support.esri.com website . The tool's name is MXD2AXL
Greetings,
Jeroen
