Public Sub SaveAsFile( _
   ByVal fullPathToPagXFile As String, _
   ByVal overwrite As Boolean _
)

public void SaveAsFile( 
   string fullPathToPagXFile,
   bool overwrite
)

Parameters

fullPathToPagXFile: A string representing the full path of the output file.
overwrite: Set to true to overwrite the mapx file if it already exists

Exceptions

System.ArgumentNullException	value fullPathToPagXFile cannot be null
ArcGIS.Core.CalledOnWrongThreadException	This method must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.

Remarks

A copy of the layout's definition is saved to file. A layout file can be imported into another project using the ItemFactory Class. A suffix of .pagx is added if the filename does not have one or has a different suffix. To overwrite an existing file of the same name, set overwrite = true.
