Summary
This custom task for ArcGIS Server .Net 9.2 SP2 will allow you to create high quality maps from a web browser. The task can be configured with ArcGIS Manager so no programming skills are required. These are the basic features of the print button:
-Leverages ArcMap layouts over the web. You can print the current map in your web browser by selecting from a preconfigured list with your own layouts.
-Export to pdf, adobe illustrator, tiff, png, svg...
-Layouts can be configured with dynamic text (date, title, author, comment etc)
How to install:
