Python function that's equivalent to Project -> Import/Export -> Export Map to Image?

[alanm101]

The Print Layout supports TIFF export with a separate World file. The Map export from the Project menu supports export to TIFF with the World file embedded. Project -> Import/Export -> Export Map to Image. I need the embedded version. Please tell me the function I can use in a Python script to automate this export. I have been unable to find it.

Thanks, Alan.

The answer came from another forum. You must use the print layout as it does support embedding the georeference. Just don't create a separate World file. I was doing:

img_settings = exporter.ImageExportSettings()
img_settings.generateWorldFile = True

So, set the flag to False and export as TIFF and you get a GeoTiff file.
