Hi,
I've been encountering the problems caused by eps's lack of tranparency support quite a lot lately. The problem (and some work arounds) are described here:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=38244491
The best option appears to be outputing a pdf and using acroread to convert it to an eps, this then "flattens" the tranparencies, while keeping them in vector format. I was wondering if anyone else had a better (and open source) solution to this problem?
If I wanted to investigate adding support for transparency flattening to inkscape where would I start? Does inkscape export to eps natively or is an external tool used?
Many Thanks,
nw
