Can not print clipped image

Postby StefanOfDenmark » Mon Aug 30, 2010 7:09 am

Hello.

Being a totally n00b with IS, I have the following problem:
An image, roughly A4 is rotated 90deg. Some rectangles are grouped and used as a clip. Image prints fine.
Image is unclipped, and I make some more rectangles. Now the background image is not big enough, so I stretch it. Group rectangles and clip.
Image looks fine on screen, but the clipped image is not printed - As in everything else on the page but the clipped image is printed.
A work around is to copy the background image and use one half of the rectangles to clip one image and the other half to clip the other image, but that's kinda weird.

Any ideas what may be wrong and what I can do about it?

Best regards
Stefan

What Inkscape version are you using? Can you attach the SVG file (shouldn't matter if the linked bitmap is missing)?

I'm using IS 0.47.

The only difference between the two images* is that in the printYES file, the picture has been reduced verticaly.

*Althought I uploaded the files in this post, I don't see them. If they are not available in this post, you can find them at http://jems.dk/printYES.svg and http://jems.dk/printNO.svg

Thank you for your time so far.

Stefan
