Adding the data frame as dynamic text using a spatial reference text string

Text based on data frame properties can be added to the text layout anywhere the product specification requires. Once you specify the data frame with the properties you want to use, you can choose the properties you want to display, or you can create a script to display specific properties in a specific way.

If you choose to use a spatial reference text string, available properties include:

• Name
• Factory code
• Alias
• Abbreviation
• Remarks
• Projection name
• Coordinate units
• Geographic coordinate system
• Datum
