Agh, that's not bad actually: I can simply replace the alpha gradient stop with an equivalent solid color, as I don't really need transparency there.

Thanks again!

All the best,

Artemiy.

The only thing is that gradients are not supported so end up as solid color in the output PDF. Do you know if there is any workaround for this?


Gradients are supported. However, alpha in a gradient isn't. It's extremely annoying, but due to the PDF spec. A workaround is to render the gradient into a bitmap image, but that forces you to choose some resolution which partially defeats the purpose of PDF.
