[Qgis-user] Is (or should) composer able to export directly to postscript ?

2014-11-06 Thread Andrea Peri
Hi,
I try to export an all vectorial map to SVG format in the composer (qgis 2.6).

When try this appear a windows saying:

The SVG export function in QGIS has several problems due to bugs and 
deficiencies in the
Qt4 svg code. In particular, there are problems with layers not being clipped 
to the map bounding box.

If you require a vector-based output file from Qgis it is suggested that you 
try printing to
PostScript if the SVG output is not satisfactory.

I dont find any option to export to postscript from composer.
So my question is to understand if the hint is to install a new
printer postscript driver and use it to redirect the postscirpt to a
file .
Or instead there is a missing option in composer ?

Thx

Yes Andrea, the warning should be clearer. Postscript printing requires a
PS driver installed, and it will be available through the print dialog, as
usual.
