DataDrivenPages (arcpy.mapping)

サマリ

Provides access to methods and properties for managing the individual pages within a map document that has Data Driven Pages enabled.

説明

Map series can be created without any scripting at all by using the Data Driven Pages toolbar from within ArcMap. The reverse is also true: map series can be completely scripted using arcpy.mapping without using the Data Driven Pages user interface in ArcMap, but there are good reasons for combining both techniques. The ArcMap Data Driven Pages toolbar may not provide enough options for creating the "perfect" map series, but the inherent behavior of a Data Driven Pages-enabled map document can save many lines of code because the page extents, scales, dynamic text, and so forth, are all managed automatically within the map document so that code does not need to be written.

An example of this would be a scenario where a text element's string information needs to be formatted using custom logic or needs to be constructed from multiple fields. It would be unnecessary to have to do everything in arcpy.mapping just because of such a simple, custom requirement. In this case, the map document can still be authored with Data Driven Pages enabled, and arcpy.mapping can handle the custom text element string requirements. A code sample below addresses this scenario.

Data Driven Pages must first be enabled and authored within a map document (.mxd) using the Data Driven Pages toolbar in ArcMap before it can be referenced with arcpy.mapping.

The DataDrivenPages class only has a single exportToPDF method but that does not mean other export files can't be created. See the first code sample below.

A string that identifies the pages to be printed if the RANGE option in the page_range_type parameter is used (for example, 1, 3, 5-12).

String
multiple_files

An option to control how the output PDF is created. By default, all pages are exported into a single, multipage document. You can also specify that individual, single-page PDF documents be exported using two different options.

  • PDF_MULTIPLE_FILES_PAGE_NAMEExport single-page documents using the page name for the output file name.
  • PDF_MULTIPLE_FILES_PAGE_INDEXExport single-page documents using the page index value for the output file name.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです True)

Boolean
image_compression

A string that defines the compression scheme used to compress image or raster data in the output file.

  • ADAPTIVEAutomatically selects the best compression type for each image on the page. JPEG will be used for large images with many unique colors. DEFLATE will be used for all other images.
  • JPEGA lossy data compression.
  • DEFLATEA lossless data compression

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです True)

Boolean
jpeg_compression_quality

A number that controls compression quality value when image_compression is set to ADAPTIVE or JPEG. The valid range is 1 to 100. A jpeg_compression_quality of 100 provides the best quality images but creates large export files. The recommended range is between 70 and 90.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです 80)

Integer
show_selection_symbology

A Boolean that controls whether the selection symbology should be displayed in the output.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです False)

Boolean

Data Driven Pages are exported to a multipage PDF document. The map document must have Data Driven Pages enabled. PDF files are designed to be consistently viewable and printable across different platforms. They are commonly used for distributing documents on the Web and are becoming a standard interchange format for content delivery. ArcMap PDFs are editable in many graphics applications and retain annotation, labeling, and attribute data for map layers from the ArcMap table of contents. PDF exports from ArcMap support embedding of fonts and thus can display symbology correctly even if the user does not have Esri fonts installed. PDF exports from ArcMap can define colors in CMYK or RGB values.

Refer to the Exporting your map topic in ArcGIS for Desktop Help for more detailed discussions on exporting maps.

getPageIDFromName (page_name)
パラメータ説明データ タイプ
page_name

A value in the index layer that corresponds to the Name field that was used to set up Data Driven Pages

String

Many of the Data Driven Pages properties and methods use an internal index value rather than the literal names of the pages used to create the index layer. The index values are automatically generated based on the Name and Sort fields. It may not be obvious which index value represents a specific page. The getPageIDFromName method provides a mechanism for this translation.

pageID = mxd.dataDrivenPages.getPageIDFromName("HarborView")
mxd.dataDrivenPages.currentPageID = pageID
printPages ({printer_name}, {page_range_type}, {page_range_string}, {out_print_file}, {show_selection_symbology})
パラメータ説明データ タイプ
printer_name

A string that represents the name of a printer on the local computer.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです None)

String
page_range_type

The string value that designates how the pages will be printed, similar to the Pages tab within the ArcMap Export Map dialog box for PDF documents.

  • ALLAll pages are exported.
  • CURRENTThe active page is exported.
  • RANGEOnly pages listed in the page_range_string parameter will be exported.
  • SELECTEDSelected index layer features/pages are exported.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです ALL)

String
page_range_string

A string that identifies the pages to be printed if the RANGE option in the page_range_type parameter is used (for example, 1, 3, 5-12).

String
out_print_file

A path that includes the name of an output print file. The format created is dependent on the printer. If you're using a PostScript printer, the format will be PostScript, and it is recommended that a .ps extension be provided. If you're using a Windows printer, use a .prn extension.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです None)

String
show_selection_symbology

A Boolean that controls whether the selection symbology should be displayed in the output.

(デフォルト値は次のとおりです False)

Boolean

The ListPrinterNames() function is an easy way to get the string for the printer_name parameter.

注意注意:

Driver based printing is not supported on ArcGIS for Server. For Data Driven Pages printing tasks as geoprocessing services, use the exportToPDF function in the DataDrivenPages class. For information on general printing in web applications see Printing in web applications.

The following script prints a specific set of Data Driven Pages to a local printer:

import arcpy
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"C:\Project\ParcelAtlas.mxd")
mxd.dataDrivenPages.printPages(r"\\olyfile\OLYCanon", "RANGE", "1,3,5-12")
refresh ()

You will want to use the refresh method if one of the following occurs: (1) features are added to or deleted from your index layer; (2) edits are made to the Sort or Name field values; (3) the data frame extent is changed due to zooming, panning, or change to map scale; or (4) edits are made to any field being used by Data Driven Pages for an index layer feature that is driving the current geographic extent. Data Driven Pages will retain the original settings in these cases until the refresh method is executed.

コードのサンプル

DataDrivenPages example 1

The following script exports each page of a Data Driven Pages series into an individual PNG file.

import arcpy
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"C:\Project\ParcelAtlas.mxd")
for pageNum in range(1, mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageCount + 1):
    mxd.dataDrivenPages.currentPageID = pageNum
    print "Exporting page {0} of {1}".format(str(mxd.dataDrivenPages.currentPageID), str(mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageCount))
    arcpy.mapping.ExportToPNG(mxd, r"C:\Project\OutPut\ParcelAtlas_Page" + str(pageNum) + ".png")
del mxd
DataDrivenPages example 2

The following script will print only a set of map pages using a list of page names and also modifies text element map title information using customized logic that can only be accomplished within the scripting environment (in other words, the title string is custom built based on an attribute value). The script loops through each named page and sets the currentPageID accordingly. It then extracts the value from a field in the index layer called TRS. It next parses the values, strips away leading zeros, reconstructs the text element title string, and sends the results to a printer.

import arcpy
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"C:\Project\ParcelAtlas.mxd")
pageNameList = ["MPB", "PJB", "AFB", "ABB"]
for pageName in pageNameList:
    pageID = mxd.dataDrivenPages.getPageIDFromName(pageName)
    mxd.dataDrivenPages.currentPageID = pageID
    fieldValue = mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageRow.TSR  #example values from a field called TSR are "080102", "031400"
    TRSTitle = arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements(MXD, "TEXT_ELEMENT", "TRSTitle")[0]
    township, range, section = fieldValue[:2].strip("0"), fieldValue[2:-2].strip("0"), fieldValue[-2:].strip("0")
    if section != "": 
        TRSTitle.text = "Section {0} T.{1}N. R.{2}W. W.M.".format(section, township, range)
    else:
        TRSTitle.text = "T.{0}N. R.{1}W. W.M.".format(township, range)
    mxd.dataDrivenPages.printPages(r"\\olyfile\SUITE_303", "CURRENT")
del mxd
DataDrivenPages example 3

The following script will export only the selected index pages (pages 1-10) out to individual PDF files. The resulting PDFs will have the index number appended to the output file name.

import arcpy
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"C:\Project\ParcelAtlas.mxd")
ddp = mxd.dataDrivenPages
indexLayer = ddp.indexLayer
arcpy.SelectLayerByAttribute_management(indexLayer, "NEW_SELECTION",  
                                        '"PageNumber" >= 1 AND "PageNumber" <= 10')
for indexPage in ddp.selectedPages:
  ddp.currentPageID = indexPage
  ddp.exportToPDF(r"C:\Project\Output\Page" + str(indexPage) + ".pdf", "CURRENT")

del mxd
