Hello!
I'm using ArcMap 10.8.1, and I use the World Terrain Basemap w/ Reference layer a lot. Recently, when exporting maps, the basemap reference layers and labels are either illegible or hopelessly blurry. I've been using these for years without any problems. I've played around with all of the settings in the Export wizard. I've experimented with dpis from 600 to 4000. I've got the Output Image Quality at "Best." I turned off Image Compression and de-selected Compress Vector Graphics. Nothing is helping. This happens when exporting to pdf, jpeg, or png. It looks totally fine in my software, but when I export to a pdf or image, it looks totally unacceptable. I've had my IT dept look into it to see if it's something w/my system and they can't find anything.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance!!
I am so spoiled w/basemap labels now, I do NOT want to go back and take the time to create all of my own basemaps again, but it's not the end of the world if I have to.
