Setting Your Address Matching Preferences
Use the Address Matching preferences to specify the placement of the house number in addresses. The
default setting is for house numbers to come before the street name.
To set your address matching preferences:
1. On the Options menu, point to Preferences and click Address Matching to open the Address
Matching Preferences dialog box.
2. Click OK to save this preference and return to the Preferences dialog box.
3. Click OK to close the Preferences dialog box.
Setting Your Image Processing Preferences
You can control the reprojection options of your vector and raster maps using the Image Processing
Preference. Reprojection, particularly when reprojecting seamless tables or other large raster map layers,
can take a long time. This is particularly true if your reprojection is dramatic, as when you are transforming
world-wide rasters from Long/Lat to Mercator, for example.
