NMC files differ from .NMF files. While NMF files store a complete map that replaces the current map when opened, NMC files only add content to the currently-opened map. NMC files are useful for sharing map content with others. They can be emailed using the "E-Mail" option on the Tools tab. They may also be exported using the "Export" option on the Tools tab.
