Re: [Qgis-user] Label display at disappearing at different resolution
Chris, For what it's worth, I am using QGIS 2.14.1 on Win 7 with 12Gb of RAM. I was able to get myself out of trouble by making the map A2, changing the font to map units, and then printing my map at A3. ___ Johanna Botman GIS / Assets Officer Griffith City Council Ph: 02 6962 8168 Please consider the environment before printing this email notice.

Re: [Qgis-user] Label display at disappearing at different resolution
Hi Johanna, What version of QGIS are you using on what platform with how much RAM? I have found that too much information can be a challenge for even an A2 image export (300dpi) using (2.12 on XP with 3Gb RAM). What is _scary_ is that some little things get dropped and there is no warning.

[Qgis-user] Label display at disappearing at different resolution
I'm making an A3 size map of my town where every street needs to be labelled. And I need to output to a vector PDF. I have 'Show all labels for this layer (including colliding labels)' ticked I do not have 'Discourage labels from covering features' ticked. I have a rule for font size that says if a street is shorter than 100m then use a smaller font size. This helped to get a lot of smaller labels on the map, but does not get everything. When I zoom in on my canvas, I can see the labels, but when I zoom back to see the whole map, some of the labels disappear. They don't all appear on the PDF either - but the ones that do not appear aren't always the same as the ones that don't show on my canvas. Can someone suggest something that I can do (aside from telling the client that their request is unrealistic?) ___ Johanna Botman GIS / Assets Officer Griffith City Council Ph: 02 6962 8168 Please consider the environment before printing this email notice.
