Publishing a Map with ArcPublisher

ArcPublisher, which is a component of ArcGIS, allows for the publication of an interactive map--it's zoomable, mouseovers show map tips, and labels appear and disappear according to the scale. Maps published with ArcPublisher have a .pmf extension and can be read with ArcReader, which is a free download from www.esri.com. However, a published map contains links to the map data, so that the files on which its based need to be included with the pmf file. The only way we've found that works here is to put the pmf file and the associated data on storage or on the K: drive. It's not something that at this time you can do yourself. You can see an example of this at: file://///storage/ccsp/ccsp15/janetsmaps/capitalmap/worldmap.pmf. This works only in Internet Explorer. This map is strictly for demonstration and may have some data improperly coordinated.
