Summary: pattern fills do not export to ps or eps
Initial Comment:
When I create a patten (say a series of dots, short lines
etc, using Edit > Objects to Pattern) and fill a shape
(say a rectangle) with the pattern, it all appears OK on
the Inkscape screen when in svg format.
However, after exporting to ps or eps, the pattern fill
does not appear in ghostscript/ghostview and does not
print when sent to a post-script printer.
There seems to be a problem exporting pattern fills to
postscript files.
Am using Inkscape version 0.41 on Win XP 2002 with
service pack 2.

Hello,
same bug here. Debian Etch, Inkscape 0.44.1, built Sep 25 2006.
I cannot find any code related to the pattened and cropped
image in the eps-source. PNG export works.
Converting on commandline and GUI reproduces same bug.
Thank you for your help.
Ciao,
Mario

This exact problem is observed with version 0.44 on OS X.

any news if this will be fixed in near future? I understand
that postscript can't handle transparency and gradients, but
clipping a pattern to a path should be doable, or?

The problem is more generalized. I tried a gradiant
instead, to replace the pattern fill, and still it would not
print. It seams that if the stroke is not full, it would
not export properly in ps.

Anybody has a workaround for this problem, like suggesting
another application that can read svg and send to a printer
and still keep the proper size? Bitmap printing does not
keep the size.

I filed the original report using my PC. When I tried to export
to eps shapes filled with a pattern using Inkscape on my mac
at home (OSX 10.3.9), there was still no pattern fills in the
eps files, so the problem appears not to be platform specific.
