Comment 11 for bug 427226

Hi,

I have been having trouble with this problem as well and found this post that seems to be related:

As mentioned above in this thread, if anything in the SVG file is translucent, Cairo goes into "Fallback" mode and rasterises the whole image.

I managed to correct a few of my files that suffered from this by using "Select all in all layers" while running inkscape and setting the opacity of both fill and stroke to 100%.

I wonder if it would be worth adding a setting to the EPS export dialogue that would allow us to filter all graphic objects and set their opacity to 100% before passing the result to Cairo...
