Is not a Inkscape bug because is not on Inkscape code. To me is like saying that inkscape has a bug because your printer is not working. Inkscape does work in this case (proof of this is that you were able to export it as a PDF without problem).
When you send it to print it will be sent to the printing subsystem which means the data is passed to CUPS or whatever software your friend has installed. You should ask him what exactly is he using, because if he is using cups-pdf to print to PDF this has several limitations and the resulting PDF is of lower quality than PDF produced form Inkscape. cups-pdf creates a PS and then converts it to PDF. This is bad in many ways because PS has many limitations and can't represent many of the features a PDF or SVG can, and the software which converts PS->PDF is tricky and many times it screws the original file (I've been through this several times myself). So, bottom line: unless inkscape is doing something nasty to the data sent to the printer subsystem (which I doubt) is not a bug in inkscape. Can you try if the printing preview in the printing dialog is correct? If it is, the problem is in CUPS, cups-pdf or whatever your friend is using. -- Huge color "blobs" in PDF export and print https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/248721 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
