Hi Trent,
Thanks also. Oddly I don't have ps2eps on my system, only ps2epsi. But I might use your suggestion to remove transparency with a script.
Cheers, Chris

The particular sample you sent renders OK as eps using the following command:
inkscape -p '> pd_cfg.ps' pd_cfg.svg ps2eps -l -f pd_cfg.ps || ps2epsi pd_cfg.ps pd_cfg.eps
The only problem I noticed was that the rectangles in the flow chart are grey. This is because the rectangle borders have a fill of b9b9b900 (i.e. transparent grey). When printing, all alpha channels get flattened to FF (i.e. solid).
The basic rule is: IF EXPORTING TO PS/EPS, DON'T USE ALPHA.
You can write a script to remove the transparent grey fill from SVG images, along the lines of
set -e for i in *.svg; do mv $i $i.bak sed 's/style="fill:#b9b9b9;fill-opacity:0.0000000;/style="fill:none;/g' < $i.bak > $i done
