I've created an A5 document composed of four layers. When I try to convert it to a PDF, one of the layers is missing. I'm under time pressure to produce this PDF. Can anyone advise me quickly what to do to rectify this? Many thanks if you can help.
Please share your Inkscape version and operating system, when you provide the SVG file.
The quickest guess I could make, is if you have an older version of Inkscape, there are bugs where certain types of objects or elements aren't converted to PDF properly. If I recall, there was one where even partial transparency was causing a problem. Filters or patterns or markers are culprits we've seen in the past too.

If you can share the file, that will help.

PDFs don't like masks, sometimes clips, and some rogue paths that have big numbers.
If you can share an example Inkscape SVG file, we can poke into it.

Spambot?
Ja. He's out.
