> There is at least one program able to replace text avoiding overlaps. It

> Maplex currently reads data from a wide variety of file formats including
> ESRI shapefile format, Laser-Scan Internal Feature format, Ordnance Survey
> National Transfer format, Ordnance Survey User Transfer format, MAPDATA
> format, Maplex Features and Labels format, and Maplex Placed Labels
> format.
> Create fully symbolized cartographic products on your computer screen, and
> then output hard copy to standard printing devices using Maplex. Maplex
> produces a variety of output files including Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia
> FreeHand, Adobe PostScript, ArcInfo annotation subclasses, Laser-Scan
> Internal Feature format, MicroStation Design files, MAPDATA format, and
> Maplex Placed Labels format.
> Maplex works well with your existing systems. Many cartographers already
> use
> ESRI's ArcInfo professional GIS software. Text in an ArcInfo database can
> be
> automatically placed using the Maplex rule base and subsequently rewritten
> to a new annotation subclass. This export feature solves the perennial
> problem of capturing type in a database and moving it around.
> Availability
> Maplex Version 3.3 is scheduled to be available during the second quarter
> of
> 1999. Maplex Version 3.2 is currently available for Windows NT 4.0 or
> greater on a Pentium PC; 64 MB RAM is recommended. For more information or
> to order Maplex, visit www.esri.com/maplex <http://www.esri.com/maplex> ,
> contact your regional office </company/contactusa.html> , or call
> 1-800-447-9778. Outside the United States, please contact ESRI (UK) (tel.:
