Hi, 
Try printing to a PDF or a .tiff (or save as pdf button) from the map composer.  I usually have no problems with that for large formats.

	Hi, I've installed QGIS 2.6.1-Brighton (following the explanations given on your website) on my private MacBook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012, processor 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory with Yosemite 10.10.2 (14C109). I'm the responsible person for making and updating the ENTSO-E map  and I use currently ESRI ArcGIS Desktop 10 but since I found your software, I decided to try it with my ESRI shape files I work with. I like your software which is performant, very user friendly and free, which works with ESRI shape files and which works on Macs! The only thing I miss is that it doesn't seem to be possible to export the maps in high resolution, it seems to be limited to 400 dpi, which is not enough for quality printing, the large maps (131.1 x 116.9 cm and 161.1 x 116.5 cm for the biggest) have plenty of small details. My question to you: will it be possible in the future to export in 600 dpi or higher? If not, then I will have to used ESRI software as I did until now. Thank you in advance for your answer and best regards Philippe Lagarrigue [hidden email] Phone: +32 486 05 73 95
