[Geomoose-users] PDF legend print in GM3

[Christopher Hughes]

What version of GeoMoose 3 are you using? (Have you pulled the current dev
version from github or are you using an official release?) Now that I think
of it,
the ability to add legends to print has been added since the last official
release.

If you're working on 3.6.2 (or earlier), that may be why it isn't working.
