Change it to PDF. "Postscript" is missleading, since PS/EPS have a total different workflow.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
I think Nyall will have some more information where things go right and where they (can) go wrong. Before improving the dialog text, we will need some insights into what actually can go wrong and if we are able to predict that a certain output is particularly prone to suffer from deficiencies. As a second step we can write a message (or messages) that hints a user towards potential problems (we see you are using blend modes, these will be lost when exporting to format X, consider using Y instead) and give task-focused suggestions (if you want to further edit the result or use it for interactive web-publishing, use SVG, if you use it for printing and static presentation prefer PDF).

I have produced a number of maps that are exported to produce vector graphics that can be inserted into a word processing document to make a multipage document.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
Hi there, even on EPS, PS or PDF, output with effects never really work pretty well. Some flavors of those types don't accept transparency at all. Actually, I never wanted to remove the warning. Please keep the dialog, just update the message. Perhaps a more neutral warning should be better, like you suggest. I just was curious because I didn't find EPS/PS export support at all and this made me wonder about the dialog's content.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS SVG: outdated warning
Hi Richard, no, I was talking about QGIS2 (stable), but I was wrong about Qt5, I'm sorry. I've looked for Qt5 libraries installed only and didn't check that QGIS2 still uses Qt4. I don't have a clue, why the installer installed Qt5 anyway. QGIS2 doesn't have EPS export, does it? I can't find it anymore. Perhaps I'm looking at the wrong menu again...
