Why are some layers not appearing when printing or exporting?
The map is being printed or exported at the exact map scale at which the missing layer’s scale references are set. Due to rounding errors in the map scale, the map scale is rounding up slightly, causing those layers to stop drawing.
What kind of file do I need to export a map?
You can export maps to several industry-standard file formats. EMF, EPS, AI, PDF, and SVG are referred to as vector export formats, since they can contain a mixture of vector and raster data.

Why does legend disappear when printing ArcGIS 10.0?
A workmate had a similar problem: the map was exported to a PDF file and the plotter printed the map itself fine, but not the legend, which partially disappeared.
