Bug Description

I'm running Inkscape 0.46 on Ubuntu 8.04. I have a picture, part of which is clipped.
Exporting this picture as 'Postscript via Cairo' (via Save As) cuts of part of the picture on the left side. (and everything is rasterized)
Exporting it via the old postscript exporter doesn't cut off anything and preserves everything as vector graphics, but loses transparency and adds strange borders.

If I get rid of the clipping 'Postscript via cairo' doesn't cut off the wrong parts anymore (and only parts of the image are rasterized). however for some reasons some fonts in the results exist twice, once as bitmap and once as font (just on top of each other).

Attached are examples of all of this.

If you still see this issue with clip-paths in Cairo exports with the current release version (Inkscape 0.47) - could you attach the original SVG file so that we can try to reproduce this issue on different platforms?

This seems to work much better in Inkscape 0.47.
If I simply save as 'postscript (*.ps)' as the name 'cairo' seems removed from the entry (?) everything looks good. some things are still rasterized, but that may be unavoidable (?).
If you're still interested in the original svg let me know, otherwise the bug can be closed as fas as I'm concerned.

Thank you for testing and reporting back! Inkscape 0.47 has switched to cairo-based export for PDF/PS/EPS - you can find a summary of the changes in the release notes <http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/0.47#PDF.2C_PostScript.2C_and_EPS_export>.

I will close this report as 'Fix Released' - please feel free to add a comment and revert the bug status to 'New' if the same issues occur when exporting to PostScript with the current stable release.
