Hi,
I am replying to the list, too.
You can edit the legend in the print layout itself (delete layers,
change fonts, change labels...) but not after printing to pdf. Maybe you
should give svg export a try (never did it myself, should do it one day)
and edit the result in incscape.

Thanks! I kind of got started and the
pDF does look good after creation. I Haven't figured how to get a
legend on it which I can edit.

Hi Charles,
you set the physical size of your printout in the "composition" tag.
Extent and scale of the map are set in the "Item Properties" when
the map is activated. If you need a 1:1 scale of your printout,
print into pdf and visualize with 100%. Especially text size is
shown as e.g. 10pt in the print composer and thus seems to be too
huge if you want to print large maps.
hope this helps

I want to print a wall map in the size of 8FT x 4FT. I am using a
double 19 inch monitor setup and need to be able to select the
entire
area to be printed, and get it to come into the Print Composer
with the
correct zoom level. At present I get the same view as I get on
my two
monitor setup. I defined the map to be 4' x 8' and brought the
current
view into the print composer and get the same zoom as I see on the
monitors.
At this zoom I get the area I want but the details are so small
it is
useless.
HELP!!!
Thanks in advance
Charles
