[Bug 208217] Re: Masks don't work on print or PDF

 

Not sure whether it is this one, or Bug #427540, but I am having this
issue for 0.92.2 in Windows 10.  An svg with a mask saved as a PDF shows
a blank pdf output.  Also, if I look at the SVG file in a browser
(chrome, or IE), the masked item does not show up.  The masked item is
visible in the inkscape viewer however.

Title:
  Masks don't work on print or PDF

Status in Inkscape:
  Fix Released
Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When printing on 0.46 branch, objects with masks don't appear on the
  print.

  In the attached picture, the turtle sitting in the water has a mask
  with a gradient to make his feet fade into the water. He prints fine
  in 0.45.1, but in 0.46 branch he's gone.

  Exporting to bitmap works fine on 0.46. Printing to bitmap (Render as
  bitmap) works fine also on 0.46. Save as PDF via cairo keeps the
  turtle but loses all blurs (blurs not implemented in PDF) and the
  mask, so his legs are fully visible. I think PDF should be capable of
  a blend to transparent, because the leaves on the bushes blend to
  transparent and they export to pdf beautifully.
