Ok. I must have dreamed the other. It would be a nice option to have
georeferenced file output from the composer.

The new raster output option doesn't have any directly relation to
image output. The option was created due to problems of PS Printers
with large composer maps combined with transparent vector objects.
When you try to print to PS Printers without checked raster option
many printers aren't able to print maps in the correct way. Some
objects are lost, polygon fill pattern will be printed wrong etc.
When you check the raster option, the map is encapsulated as image
into the postscript output. PS output generated in this way is
printable on PS printers without problems and the fill pattern will
be printed as you see them in composer map.
I hope that my explanations are understandable.

Betreff: [Qgis-user] Composer raster output
Marco,
I am a little unclear of the new raster output option in the Print
Composer. I do not seem to see a difference in output when saving as
an image (png) with and without this option checked. My hope was to
get a png output with an associated world file. Am I misunderstanding
the concept of this feature?
Thanks,
John
