I tried to transform the image in object, than I changed with the node tool (and that work well). But when I try to export the file in PDF the image return in its original shape.

Save it first as a .svg to preserve the original file, then export as a .png.
When you export as a .png you will lose all of your vector data, but you will keep the raster image clipped to the shape via transparency. Hope that's what you're trying to do & what I've said makes sense

Try the dev build of 0.47. I think you might have used a clip which, from memory, are not preserved when saving as PDF in 0.46.
