Hi, I did have the same problem, in my case it´s 58 km of cave passages and it takes 15 x 6 m (1:300). But I think, there´s no need to see all the symbols in this main map, f.e. just because you cannot print and put it somewhere normally (possibility to climb on the map 15-6 m ). So I prefer to use "symbol-hide group all" and then f.e. symbol-show line wall ... and scale 1:800 if you need, and voilá, clear and readable map can be made.

Hi, I'm just redrawing a not too small cave in therion. The x- and y- extent is quite big, while having lots of small passages. In these passages a scale of 1:250 is still nice, however exporting in that scale exporting does not work due to the error: "error -- Map is too large for PDF format. Try smaller scale!" Is there a way to "scale down" export while keeping details? Especially gradient arrows and other symbols not looking good at 1:1000. I know that some details getting too small for printing, but it would love to have it on screen as one map...
