We cannot seem to find any way to export our projects as PNG/JPEG through the print layout/composer. We draw normal line and point SHP files over the Bing/Google Earth etc layers, but the exported image is simply blank with only our line and point layers showing.
We can sometimes get exports succesfully when the scale is over 3000, but due to the detailed information we need to depict, we need to get down to a scale of 1000.
Does anyone have any solutions or alternative options we can try?
The vendor is not allowing those images to be called/exported at large scale. I've had the same experience with trying to export Esri basemaps in the layout. You'll have to download the aerial image files (tif, jpeg, sid...etc) and load them in manually into Q, hit a public aerial WMS (in the US many states provide this or USGS provides a 1m service), or create and serve out your own aerial WMS to export against from your own image file repository.
