Bug Description

I have an Illustrator .ai file which I opened with Inkscape. One of the characters in the file always prints grey, even though it shows in a turquoise colour on screen, so I isolated it and saved as svg.

The svg also has the same problem: it looks one colour, it prints as grey. No, I am not printing in black+white :)

Even from _other_ applications which use the svg file, this turquoise shape is printed as grey! I tried in OpenOffice and saving as a PDF and using evince.

But... if I copy the pdf or OpenOffice file to a Mac, then it prints as turquoise. I am lost here.

Not reproduced on Windows XP, Inkscape 0.91 and trunk rev. 14495. Printing to a PDF file with both the vector and bitmap renderer works as expected.
