[Qgis-user] Google map images better on iDevice that in Qgis?

[Steve Research]

I am using Web>OpenLayers Plugin>Google Maps to deliver the data and can’t see anything there so set these details.

I will follow these links to see what that looks like.

Based on what I gather from reading other people's suggestions I think adjusting the dpi for the output image changes what tiles are loaded in.  But you can force it to use just one zoom level of tiles.  I export everything at 300 dpi to use just to make sure things look OK for color printing and PDFs exported from report files.
