Loading control points from a world file

Loading control points from a world file overwrites all active control points, including those you have added manually.

  1. On the Georeferencing toolbar, click the View Link Table button View Link Table.
  2. Uncheck Auto Adjust if you want to view or edit the control points in the Link table; otherwise, the transformation is applied immediately.
  3. On the Link table toolbar, click the Load button Load Links, navigate to the world file, then select it. Click Open to load its contents.
