Hi,

I need to pre-generated a set of bookmarks files for a large number of projects in ESRI ArcMap 10.3. It looks that this functionality is available only via ArcObjects.

Apparently, there is a way to work with ArcObjects from Python using ComTypes package (according to this presentation from ESRI Dev Forum 2010): http://www.pierssen.com/arcgis9/upload/misc/python_arcobjects.pdf. This is also a related blog post (2016): https://tereshenkov.wordpress.com/tag/comtypes/

I was wondering if anyone tried to explore integration of FME - Python - ArcObjects using this method. I understand that it's may be more related to ESRI environment, however the majority of my data, workflows are in FME. If there is a working example, it can be extended to such operations as generating ESRI mxd files, ESRI network datasets, etc.

I appreciate any input or advice on this topic.

Kind regards,

Sasha
