    Hi, I'm having an issue with editing some maps. When I load them into Inkscape as an SVG I can edit them fine and they look normal as in the attached screenshot. When I then export them as a pdf for sending to print, all the trees suddenly have a white background (labelled as pdf screenshot).

    Can anyone help with what this is could be caused by?

    Thanks

    Strange. Works perfectly here as just tested:

    Are you perhaps allowed to upload a part of it as an Inkscape file?

    Hi Polygon, thanks for replying. Attached is a part of this with the background + trees saves as an Inkscape SVG. I had the same issue  when export just this small selection to a pdf.

    Thanks for the file; works here flawlessly:

    Though I find all your tree segments grouped containing clipping masks - it works out here nonetheless but may get rid of those and try again File->Save a copy->as PDF and see if this will help with your PDF viewer or whatever target application it will go.
