Thanks again for the quick answer,

I think there is some misunderstanding again. Now I attach the North.svg
file I made through the inkscape user interface with a png file as
"background" layer and a pdf file as "atmospheric field" layer. Now, It
is easy to produce everything I need.

I can formulate my problem clearly: why can I produce such file through
the user interface but I can not automate it as I did it for many times
but not using pdf file. This is very important for me. (Important to use
vector file)
