on some cases Inkscape produce a weired bug in PDF, especially where gradients and translucent effects are present. Inkscape produce a PDF that is viewable by Acrobat, but confuse some older software For example RIP (raster image processor for Large format printer).
Workaround : Open that pdf in Ilustrator (cs3 in my case) it gives a waring: " Some objects were reintrerpreted", "An unknown shading type was encountered." but is displayed correctly. After saving to pdf in illustrator, pdf work well in other software too.
So I suspect Inkscape that do something not so standard while exporting to pdf. I suggest to have some "compatibility mode"
