Using a selected MPS Atlas map sheet as the layout for the map series

The Map Sheet Properties tab allows you to specify layout for your map sheets. You can choose a map document that already contains map sheets and has data frame manager properties already defined.

Using a layout from an existing MPS-Atlas map sheet will bring in the existing layers, page elements, and properties from the selected map sheet. You can also add data frame manager properties using the Show Data Frame Manager Properties button on the MPS Atlas toolbar.
