[Qgis-user] Mapbooks with Easyprint

[Luca Lanteri]

Fortunately now are just few things. Recently I've had to use ArcGis just to
do complex layouts and to create series of geo-reports. I'm trying to bypass
this using the command line '-snapshot' option but it's just a little too
tricky. Some others limitations for my work of the Qgis composer are that it
doesn't seems to be really WYSIWYG, and that it has some problem with pdf
and svg export. For all the other things our migration to PostGIS+QGIS was
been a very fruitfully experience, and I hope I can give up AG soon also for
these last works.

>>  Hi
>>
>> I started adding some mapbook functionality:
>>
>> i) Mapbook by grid: You have to create the regular grid first. Paper
>> format, layout, scale etc. values are taken from standard easyprint tab
>> ("simplemap"). You can also choose some overlap percentage. After creating
>> the grid layer you can export the maps. There are some additional parameters
>> like adding adjacent tile indicator to the map or creating an overview map.
>>
>> ii) Mapbook by feature: This will zoom to the extent of every feature of a
>> specific layer. You can use the layers attributes for setting the title,
>> subtitle, scale and rotation. Scale and rotation will be ignored for polygon
>> and linestring layers.
