    Thank you, Matt.
    This is not a big issue after all.
    I posted it because it might extend to other effects or other versions of your applications.

    Re: Shadows in PDF DP7

    The background colour replacement I did was just a work-around, I understand it is not the best choice if you have precise color scheme.

    Re: Shadows in PDF DP7

    Jeff,
    your black text has overprinting selected, the cyan component you added to black text is useless and might cause loss of quality in the final printed output, I would use a 100% K only.

    Re: Strange PDF output from this file

    Further tests proved that the bug exists in XDP7 and 6, not 5.
    The stroke colour is "transmitted" to the whole shape as Rik discovered.

    Strange PDF output from this file

    I received a file at work which contains a round shape which turns out gray in PDF output.
    I tested XDP7 and 6, both with the same result.

  13. Re: PDF export displaying ellipse/shape boundaries

    Just to add something to the work-around, I'd suggest to keep all you want to remain as vectors (i.e. text) on a layer above the rest of the drawing.

  14. Re: PDF export displaying ellipse/shape boundaries

    I think that the problem is due to the fact that the transparency is treated internally as RGB in Xara, while the surrounding part of your image as colours defined as CMYK.
    When the pdf is generated...

    Herbie,

  17. Re: PDF Export: convert Text into Shapes - WRONG TEXT CONVERSION !!

    Don't worry Antimix,
    it is simply a problem of Acrobat when displaying the file, it treats "l" or "I" as straight lines not as closed shapes and then it uses a different antialiasing algorithm.
