Esri Personal GeodatabaseArcView, ArcEditor or ArcInfo

Esri ArcGIS must be installed to import geodatabases (the only exceptions are the Basic and File Personal Geodatabase formats which do not require any ArcGIS license at all).


Windows 64-bit users who want to have full geodatabase support will need to install a 32-bit version of Adobe Illustrator CC (2014 or newer) separately because the Adobe Creative Cloud app doesn't include it. Esri geodatabase libraries required for feature class import in MAPublisher are only available in 32-bit.


As a minimum, a free Esri ArcReader license allows users to access feature classes using the Basic ArcSDE Server format, with some limitations on the selection functions.


The connection to a ArcSDE server requires server access, user account and versioning information to be provided by the database administrator. ArcSDE connections are supported up to ArcGIS 10.2. Depending on your available minimum Esri license and operating system, certain limitations may exist. See more about importing spatial databases into MAPublisher.
