[Qgis-user] How to set lat/long boundaries for a map

[Jonathan Moules]

Hi Joe,
In QGIS 2.0 I think this is possible with the "Export" tool.

Open the Processing toolbar.
Type in "export" into the search box at the top.

One of the results is "Export raster layer". Double click this.

It doesn't appear to have any help, however it looks fairly
self-descriptive. If you want to use a bounding box, enter it into the
"subset based on georeferenced coordinates" field. If you click on the
ellipses (...) you'll see some options to help do it manually.

Export it to wherever you want it to go.

It seemed to work OK when I did it for a quick test just now.

Regards,

Jonathan
