[Qgis-user] Exporting maps out of QGIS into Adobe Pro to create layered pdf files

[Jamie Gould]

Good afternoon,

I am trying to export out my map in QGIS into Adobe Pro to create a layered PDF that I could toggle separate layers on and off.

In the past I have done this through arcGIS, but I am currently at a company that uses geoSCOUT and you can't export a map in PDF form in geoSCOUT.  So, a former colleague told me that I can import shapefiles into QGIS and export the map to PDF that way - which works! However, when I bring the map into Adobe Pro, none of the separate layers show up and it's just a static PDF image.

I just spent an hour with the Adobe help desk and the person I dealt with did all the things on the Adobe side and asked me to reach out to someone with QGIS to see if anyone has dealt with this before and how to get it working? Perhaps I have a setting off that I should have enabled, I'm really not sure.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance,


Jamie Gould, C. Tech
