Printing a map at a specific zoom level of a WMTS product

pieterdsmt

Hello, a WMTS product is being provided to the government, consisting of various levels of detail per scale. I would like to print a large area on a map according to a specific zoom level, but when I print it, it always defaults to the most detailed level. As a result, the information on the map is not readable. Is there a way to choose the detail level for printing?

I don't want a screencapture because the quality is rather poor than.

Thanks for you answer.

Hi Pieter,

I have found with these services that the zoom level that you are at in the main GM window is what will be downloaded for the map output.

Usually I experiment with zooming in and out in the main GM window and outputting a few tests, usually by having a really small area of the WMTS map as a separate layer rather than the whole thing as they can take a long time to download depending on the specific service you are using. This way you can calibrate the zoom level you need and then switch layers and output the full map.

Maybe this won't work with the particular service you are using, but it seems to work for me.
