MXD file names containing an ampersand (&) return the error, "Error! rasterizing data"

Last Published: April 25, 2020

Description

Printing to a plotter using the ArcPress Printer engine returns the following error, "Error! rasterizing data", when using an MXD file with an ampersand (&) in the name of the MXD file.

Cause

This is a known limit. The use of custom symbology (in this case, an ampersand) in the MXD file name causes the error to be displayed.
