I intend to improve the current (incomplete) version, which already is very helpful for my specific use but probably not for the general user. I just wanted to know whether it makes sense to invest more time and discuss some basic questions.
Current SVN uses cairo exporter to PS and EPS, which automatically converts areas with transparency into bitmaps. Do you think your solution still makes sense as an alternative to that?
OK, good to know that. Probably this solution is appropriate for many cases. However, I think maybe it would be nice to have a pure vector-based alternative, because it preserves the quality of vector graphics while minimizing the file size (useful for professional publication or when printed on a poster).
I'll get the current SVN version and check how the cairo EPS exporter does for my application. If I'm happy with it, I will not carry on with my approach.
Thanks, Marco
