Thank you @loukash "This can become difficult, however, because Affinity still doesn't support gradient mesh or gradients along a curve." Yes I recognized that and I hope they will provide this functionality in future.

@Old Bruce thank you for your post here on this question. I have adjusted the export according to @Hangman comment and it worked.

Hello @Hangman, thank you for your advice on the settings to rasterization. I have adjusted the rasteration setting and it worked well. Only the file is now significant larger than before. Now the file is 5,4MB. Can you tell me whether it works to use the SVG on Websites or whether also here the rasterization must be applied? Cheers, Brand Texture.pdf

I tried to open the afdesign file in publisher and export it from there to pdf, but the problem remains.

I want to create with Affinity Designer a gradient mesh. In order to be able to define a brand specific texture, I am experimenting. The texture shall be used in Powerpoint slides but also on large prints like banners. So I must work in a way that it does not raster the image, because I want to scale it infinitly. Unfortunatelly you see in the Texture.pdf that the gaussian blur applied on the shape does not exist any more. Only the color gradients work in the PDF. If I export to SVG, then the gaussian blur exits. Also if I bring the SVG to Powerpoint and Export the Powerpoint as PDF, then the shape is blured correctly. So I assume this must be an export error in the Affinity Designer 2.4. Can you please help? I have posted the export menu screen shots so you may see whether any adjustment should be made, to get it to work. Thank you. Texture.pdf Texture.afdesign Texture.svg
