Warning After you save a map in Autodesk MapGuide Release 6, you cannot open the map in earlier releases of the program. Autodesk MapGuide Viewer users using older versions can easily upgrade to Release 6 by downloading the new Viewer from: http://www.autodesk.com/prods/mapguide/download/index.htm If you opened the map using its Web URL by choosing File Open Location instead of File Open, you can save the map locally, but you cannot save it to the Web server. You can save the map to the Web server only if you opened the map using File Open, you have access to the Web server through a network, and you have the proper permissions set up. For more information about setting permissions, refer to "Creating and Modifying Users and Groups" on page 83. You use the File Save, or File Save As commands to save maps. For step-by-step instructions, choose Help Contents, click the Index tab, and look up "saving maps." Publishing a Map Help Index publishing maps Help Index linking and embedding maps You can publish a map by copying or uploading the map to your Web server. Note You must have either FTP access or Write access to the maps directory. If you are not able to save the map to the Web server, you should ask your server administrator to post it for you. For step-by-step instructions, choose Help Contents, click the Index tab, and look up "publishing maps." After you have posted the map, Web site developers can embed your map in their HTML pages or create links to them. When a user visits a Web page that contains your map or clicks the link to it, Autodesk MapGuide Server sends the map data to Autodesk MapGuide Viewer, which displays the map in the user's Web browser. The Web developer should make a note on the Web page that Autodesk MapGuide Viewer is required for viewing the map and should add a link to the Autodesk MapGuide Web site where the user can download Autodesk MapGuide Viewer free of charge. For step-by-step instructions, choose Help Contents, click the Index tab, and look up "linking and embedding maps." Publishing a Map | 151
