In print composer you can export to SVG, which you can use in Inkscape.
Not sure of Photoshop though!

Cheers,

Update:


I've helped Gill through some general steps off list. Including dealing
with the tiled ascii dtm. I've updated my blog to reflect this:

Questions still on getting raster/vector data from QGIS into photoshop.
Which are beyond my expertise!

        Gill,
        
        Hopefully my post from a few weeks ago will see you on the right
        track:

        I recommend creating your own contours from the ASCII grid, then
        you get what you want. Probably best to use the vector (.shp)
        format of the district map for your purpose.

        Sent while on the move, apologies for typos.
        
        I  wonder if anyone out there can help me with a few tips ?
        I am new to Qgis....and finding it very hard to get started !
        
        I am an artist and need to get very high resolution map
        information
        for an installation I am doing
        I am familiar with photoshop and ideally would like to transfer
        map
        info. to that
        I have downloaded several formats from the Ordinance survey open
        date
        of the area I am interested in (NJ) in the UK
        and am exploring vector files for the first time-dxf
        
        Really all I want to do is overlay contour lines on top of
        district
        maps (NJ for the UK) and end up with a very high res version I
        can print large
        
        Even if I could manage to convert the .dxf files to something
        photoshop can use,  it would be a start
        Also, I have managed to import data in somehow (not sure what I
        did
        !)  and can see layers but they don't overlay like they do in
        photoshop and I can't get a high res Tiff exported as an
        image-only low res
        I am quite good at learning new programs but this one is so
        difficult for me
        Apologies for the low level query but I am really stuck
        
        Many thanks in advance
        
        Gill
