Maps Printer does not respect the resolution set in the Print Layout about mapsprinter HOT 8 CLOSED

Does anyone have any advice on this? Or does anybody have a workaround? Thanks!

Hi @peterbishop88
Sorry for the late reply. I just made a quick try on a print layout and I can not reproduce the issue; I get the same size as if exported from print layout dialogs (tested with 300, 250 and 150 dpi). The size changed in the three cases and coherent with direct output.
Also tried with unchecking the "print as raster" and got same size.
I'd need more input. Any project file you can share with me at delazj at gmail dot com?

Ah... Are you using some effects on your composition or data?

Hello! No, I'm not using any effects. I've attached a step-by-step to reproduce, as well as some example files. Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks so much for looking into this.

To summarize my issue - I expect the file size from the Maps Printer plugin to match the file size when I do Export to PDF in the Layout Manager. Is this the intended behavior?

Hi @DelazJ , I was wondering if you had any luck at reproducing my issue (or the time to do it!) with the steps in the Word Doc above? Let me know if you need any additional information on my end. Thanks!
PS I love this plugin and I use it every day at work.

Hi @peterbishop88
Yes I did test and reproduced your issue. Happened that I did not properly get the GUI settings such as the raster tick box. Would you mind giving a shot to https://github.com/DelazJ/MapsPrinter/blob/fixrasterizeexport/maps_printer.py (replace the file in your plugin folder with that one)? The file should be accessible through QGIS Settings -> User Profiles -> Open Active Profile Folder then python/plugins/MapsPrinter folder.
You'd "need" to reload QGIS

Hi @DelazJ !

Amazing!! Thank you SO much. I really appreciate it. Your update works great.

I love this plugin. My composers take a long time to load, so your plugin lets me export them without having to wait for them to load.

Glad it did it. I will need to check other formats behavior and will release a new version.

Thanks. This originally is the reason why I wrote this plugin. And happy that's still useful.
