CoClasses that implement IExport

Remarks

This interface contains the essential properties and methods for controlling an export object.

At ArcGIS 9, this interface is the replacement for the IExporter and IArcPressExporter interfaces.

IExport should be used in conjuction with one of the ten export CoClasses:  ExportAI, ExportBMP, ExportEMF, ExportGIF, ExportJPEG, ExportPDF, ExportPNG, ExportPS, ExportSVG, and ExportTIFF.

The Export Active View sample demonstrates the basic use of this interface. 

Exporting a map to a graphics export file involves a few basic steps:

1. Create an export object.
2. Define the resolution of your source display and of the destination file.
3. Prepare a number of extent rectangles (Envelopes and a RECT structure) to define the target area on the print device and the map extent to be printed.
4. Generate draw instructions and direct them to the export object.  The export object will sense the incoming draw instructions and begin the process of bulding the graphic export file in the desired format.
