20037: Scales for maps on the layout may not have imported correctly

The scales for the maps on your layout may not have imported correctly if the imported .mxd file was last saved in data view.

Solution

  • Open the .mxd file in ArcMap and save it in layout view before importing.
  • Open the layout in ArcGIS AllSource and update the scales for as many map frames as needed.
