choose “Save as template”.

31. Navigate to where you want to save the template, and, in “File name”, enter a name.

For example, “Day_2_Workshop_Template”.

“Export as Image” button, that looks like: .

36. Navigate to where you want to save the image, and, in “File name”, enter a name. For

Quantum GIS, so that you do not lose the changes you made in the print composer

window.

2 Making a New Map from a Map Template

Now that we have made a map template (that we made in the above process), we can use

this template in the future to make a new map – without having to go through the whole

process of setting up the layout all over again. To do this, we will load the map template into

a new Quantum GIS project.
