#Save the .MXD file with a '''new''' name. Remember to use '''relative''' path to data sources in the map document (mxd).

#Verify {{Warning| {{IMSMANG}} may '''only''' use mxd files that are created in 10.1 format. In ArcMap use '''all''Save a copy''''' layers and the map frame has the same projectionchoose ''ArcMap 10.1 and ArcMap 10.2 format''.}}
