Hi all,
I produced a heatmap in R, saved it as both pdf and svg, and when I try to import it into inkscape, the heatmap colors don't look right at all -- they look much lighter. Even when I open the pdf file using foxit or adobe it looks just fine. Attached the pdf and a screenshot of what it looks like in inkscape.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi.
That is an anti-aliasing artifact.
You can switch off anti-aliasing or apply pixellize filter on the object for the look of a pdf viewer.
Keep in mind if you use filters they will be converted to raster images when saved as pdf.
If you are that advanced with R, generating overlapping rectangles may be an other option.
