Hi,

I have an inkscape svg file (attached)

While printing to a printer as well as printing to PDF, some items seen at the lower left corner are not printing .

I am attaching the PDF output (using 'Microsoft print to PDF' printer).

Please advise. Thank you!

Royce.

Can you test the attached file please? I just made a deep ungroup. I´m not able to find any missing parts here (on macOS).

@Polygon, Thank you,

but your attached PDF is the same as mine.

The same items are missing.

I might add that the missing items are a PDF file imported and then clipped to show only the relevant portion.

I am surprised that you can see the missing items (as you say).

I am attaching a screenshot of your file as seen on my monitor (Windows PC) .

It shows up in Inkscape, Preview.app and Printer-preview and printed on paper:

Added a new one Printed to PDF via print dialog.

@Polygon, No your images still have the missing components.

Please see my attached screenshot of the original SVG file.

While printing to a printer or to PDF, those parts disappear

Not sure if I accidentally uploaded the wrong file:

Made a new one from your SVG at #1 and saved as PDF:

And here´s the print out:

@Polygon, yes this printout has the missing components.

How did you do it?

Just Deep ungroup of the missing parts or the entire file ?

Thank you!

@Polygon, But in any case, if it can be seen in the SVG file, it should print it, shouldn't it ?

Can this be called a bug ?

No - I did nothing - just opened your SVG and save as PDF with default settings - at least I didn´t change anything in the dialog: PDF1.5/Convert text to path/99dpi/use document´s page size:OK

The problematic part is a group which contains1419 objects clipped. I did an ungroup because I thought the number can be correct - but regretted and took it back. That´s all really.

Hi, I've been struggling with this kind of issue and reading several of posts which stay unsolved. One of the answers around "clipping" led me to a solution, at least in my case. I hope it can help you too.

Select an object that does not print, check it is a "path" with its logo (otherwise, it will not work).

Then, go to the menu Path and select "Flatten". If this makes the object disappear, cancel with CtrlZ and try with Path > Split Path. If this makes you lots of paths, select them all then make Path > Union.

This should clean the mess of unseen path complexity and make the output interpreter for printing work.
