V0.45, exporting PDF => result without images

Hi, seems like the never ending story. After spending about a day for the drawing, I finally found out, that I can't get it to the print service just like that, because all images are not included within the created pdf.
I looked up the mailing lists, googled like hell, read wikis, tried the hand made "effects-extensions" via ghostscript, used the command line option "--export-pdf". Same result: no images in the pdf.
Great program, but if I only can see the result on the screen, the whole thing is questionable. However, maybe I've just missed *the* hint, that will do the job.
So, the way for best results would be File => Save As... => PDF?
I just need any way, to get that thing out as it looks on the screen!
Any help appreciated. Cheers, Holger

Don't you by chance have "import bitmap as <image>" unchecked in prefs? In that case it's imported as a rect with pattern, and PDF output does not yet support pattern fills. I just checked 0.45 and a PNG image imported as <image> exports to PDF just fine.
