Make sure you are exporting as PNG. Do not 'Save As' Cairo PNG.
(I came across this a couple of days ago, and the symptom was that blur filters were not being applied. Also, the pixel dimensions of the two methods differ, if the graphic bleeds over the edge of the 'page').
Can someone tell me why we have a non-vector format in the save as list? One that seems redundant and apparently with less functionality than the normal export. Is this for testing purposes?
Yes, it was for testing the Cairo output. It was part of the GSoC project to do PDF output, and was easy enough to add, so we left it in for testing Cairo rendering. Now, is anyone using it for anything now? Bulia? I'd imagine at this point it's cruft.
