Hi,
Don't save as a pdf - these do not generally work as georeferenced images & 
QGIS cannot create a geopdf.
The easy way is without using the print composer, just save the project as an 
image (Project menu) - the default is a georeferenced png (png + world file).
Avenza cannot read these, but QGIS can. Open the png image you just saved as a 
new raster layer in QGIS, & then save it as a Gtiff format image. This should 
create a geotiff of the map that you can read with Avenza.
Cheers,
Brent Wood

I am a new user to QGIS, and interested in making referenced pdf maps for 
Avenza App.  I find this app excellent out in the middle of no where as the GPS 
on my phone places me on the map.  I tend to be rather adventurous, and often 
can find images of maps for places I travel, but not with the geo referencing.  
I have tried to use QGIS and was able to make images with references, but when 
using print composer to save the pdf, Avenza says the map is not referenced.  :(

Obviously I am not doing something correctly, could some one give me a short 
tutorial or point me to a tutorial?

I have attached link of a map of interest.
