I am trying to make a PDF with layers. If one of my shapefiles symbology is set to categories, unique values, as in a states shapefile, it wont let me turn off each state; it groups it.



Is the only way to alleviate this to make individual shapefiles?



Its not just for the states, I have a bunch that are set to more than one unique values.

          There is no need to make individual shapefiles.



          Instead create a layer from your original shapefile and place a definition query on it that filters its features for one state. Leave the symbology as single symbol.



          Then for each other state, copy/paste the layer, change its definition query and change its symbol.
