Loading Production PDF export settings (Defense Mapping)
You can save Production PDF export settings to an .xml file. This allows you to reuse and share export settings. Saved settings include all color mapping rules defined in the Color Mapping Rules dialog box and all other PDF settings.
The list of pages that are exported and the security settings on the Pages and Security tabs are not saved as part of this file. These settings are unique to each export process and, if used, must be set each time.
