[Qgis-user] Large Format Printing (A0)

An example using ps.map of GRASS

http://forest2002.essc.org.ph/test_map/map/solano_2508.pdf

The maps were designed for large-format printing (30 x 24 inches)
All data layers from grass dbase.  ps.map is highly customizable
especially for making printouts in batches.
I had to use a graphics software for the other map elements (legend,
scale, borders, ec.) and then call the eps file within ps.map.
