    Default Bug with pdf output with linear fills

    I tested PDF export of shapes with linear fills using spot colours, which now is possible in Designer6.
    I get a bug with fills using using "no color" ; Spot to Nocolor fill is totally wrong in this attached example.
    Yesterday, I got some error windows while exporting to pdf these tests, but I will report when I can consistently repeat.

    Yes, this is obviously wrong. As a workaround you can use white or a 0% tint of the given spot colour as the end colour of the linear fill, which is equivalent and should export correctly.

    Wurth,
    I tested tint of the starting color, but I get the PDFNET error reported in another thread "stitching functions must have the same cardinality"

    Here is the xar file.
    Thank you for your help

    The only way I can get it to work and it is more expensive it to use another spot colour Lunciano. This is what Wurth stated and yes I get the same stitching error.

    Thought it must be a CMYK problem so I tried it differently! If you stay in RGB and then do a named colour then do a 0.5% tint of named colour you don't get a stitching error. But it still must be a bug as surely you should be able to work with CMYK values when drawing instead of RGB! Luciano please report this as a bug.
