Bug Description

Hi, please...

- Open the attached svg in Windows build 0.47pre1
- Click on File/Save a Copy... and save as PDF

The resulted PDF is corrupt and cannot be displayed in any PDF reader. But "Save As..." produces a valid PDF.

I cannot reproduce the bug with
Inkscape 0.47pre0 r21549, built Jun 12 2009

Confirmed for 0.47pre1, Win XP SP3. The saved PDF has no embedded fonts.

This is probably a duplicate of 336646 and/or 388919. I can confirm the lack of font embedding but is not true that "Save As" and "Save a Copy" give different results (both are correct PDF files).

i dont think this is still valid.. can someone confirm? i just did some "save a copy" to pdf's and though all the filters were lost (except when selecting "rasterize filters" but that just makes everything blurry in the process, including fonts), both methods of generating a pdf yield the same result

Tested again on Windows XP, Inkscape 0.47 and lp:inkscape/0.92.x rev. 15141, and see no issue with the exported PDF.
