I want to draw a logo to plot it over white vinyl. The vinyl will be placed over a black background.
I have drawed the logo and inverted the colors with Filters->Color->Invert so it looks ok in inkscape.
But when I saved it as PDF, the colors change.
Could you please help me?
Thanks
I have attached the SVG and PDF files.

Re: White over black background
SVG filters are a raster operation, so when exporting to PDF, Inkscape can either drop the filters (preserving the vector nature of the drawing), or convert the drawing to a bitmap.
If you want white and black PDF export the way toy do it is to draw a large black rectangle behind your drawing, and fill the drawing white.
- of course when cutting the vinal, the cutter does not care about the colour of the vinal, just the outline.
