Short answer, no. Unless there is a magical APR to WOR tool out there (which I can't imagine) you have to recreate all of the settings you are describing after importing each shapefile/layer. Can be a lot of work depending on the map and its component layers and cartography.

Is it possible to "translate" a project completed in ArcView into MapInfo? What I want is to end up with is a printout from MapInfo that looks "exactly", more or less, like a printout of the same project from ArcView. I can get the individual "layers" and translate those, OK, But most of the "grunt" detail work seems to be held in another part of the ArcView project than the layers. I think what I'm talking about is zooming control, font control, line attributes, at least some of the text, and maybe other "stuff", too. The project I have in mind does not have fill "patterns", just some polygons with fills in shades of gray. There are differing line types, weights and colors; text fonts; road symbols; nothing that seems very exotic or complicated. I, then, want the ability to modify any and all "things" in this translated project in MapInfo. Possible?? Partially possible?? ...thanks ....Bob Robert Karr Phone: 517-373-3028 Science Research Assistant FAX: 517-373-0171 Science and Technology Division Legislative Service Bureau Michigan State Legislature 124 West Allegan Street, 4th Floor pob 30036 Lansing, MI 48909-7536 USA _______________________________________________________________________ List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MapInfo-L" in the message body. _______________________________________________________________________ List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MapInfo-L" in the message body.
