Hi, I'm seeing some behavior I didn't expect when I export to PDF or Postscript with Inkscape 0.43 and 0.44. Basically, I'm trying to create a fancy CD label and I have 5 layers (from bottom to top): outline; band name; show location; show date & disc number; and track listing. For layout purposes, the outline layer has some circles to represent the CDs, which have a black fill and an opacity of 64. If I reduce the opacity to 0 and export the file as either PDF or Postscript, it completely ignores the opacity and renders the circle as a solid black fill. This gets even worse once the track listing is in place because of overlapping content. Is this a bug or is there a better approach?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

As far as I know, EPS at least does not support transparency (though PDF should), so your best bet would be to either leave the fill as no fill (only the outline or stroke) and export that way, otherwise the shape will be filled.
