Re: [Inkscape-user] Major Issue

However has anyone else but me noticed that Export to Bitmap doesn't really work?

Nope, I export my SVGs to PNG quite often (damn browsers that don't support SVG) and it works just fine for me, even with quite complex gradients. I'm on the latest version in debian/sid (0.44-1), but 0.43 worked for me too; if you're on an SVN snapshot, perhaps you should expect it to be broken sometimes.

But, of course, do file a bug report in the tracker if it's not working for you.

I only ask this because I am making a poster, and it costs a good amount of money to print one of these suckers, I'd like to make sure that I'm going to get what I expect first.

I would hope that you check the output file before sending it off to the printers in any case.
