When saving to pdf at certain page size, a pattern disappears.

[sandthorn]

This glitch is produced by only win64 Inkscape 0.91.
The win32 Inkscape 0.91 is not affected.

When you change page size to 21 cm x 1.6 cm, then save as PDF, a pattern disappears on the pdf file.
However, if you import the whole SVG of 21 cm x 1.6 cm onto a A4 SVG, the glitch is gone.
Perhaps, it could be something with document size.

By the way, I test only on Windows ports.

Thanks,
Sandthorn.

One of the major differences between the Windows 32bit and 64bit builds is the bundled cairo version (used for the renderer as well as for PDF/PS/EPS export):

ok: Inkscape 0.91 32bit (win32): cairo 1.11.4
not ok: Inkscape 0.91 64bit (win64): cairo 1.14.1

While I don't have builds of 0.91 with cairo < 1.12 available, I could reproduce the reported issue depending on cairo version with Inkscape 0.48.2 on OS X 10.7.5:

ok: Inkscape 0.48.2 32bit (i386): cairo 1.10.2
not ok: Inkscape 0.48.2 64bit (x86_64): cairo 1.12.2
not ok: Inkscape 0.48.5 32bit (i386): cairo 1.12.16

Export to PDF with cairo 1.10.2 does include the pattern, export with cairo >= 1.12 does not.

The same issue also reproduces with Inkscape 0.91+devel r14194 (tested with cairo 1.12.2, 1.12.14, 1.14.2 and 1.14.3 (latest git master)).
