roman116 Posted November 26, 2021 Posted November 26, 2021 I found the same problem in Publisher like in Designer. It looks like layer blending does not work properly. I created 4 layers. Background and 3 text layers. The middle text layer is gray and blending "Multiply" It is used as "shadow". Exported PDF looks OK. But SVG does not work well. Blending layer is changed from "Multiply" to "Normal". Anyone knows how to fix it? multiply blending.pdf multiply blending.svg Quote

Blend options are as a default rasterised on export, so this could be the reason for the difference. Why did you not use a different colour on the shadow text instead using a blend option?

The shadow leaves the objects underneath visible, it just changes the shade of colour there. That's why there's a multiply blending. If I leave blending on normal, the objects under the shadow will be cut out, they won't be visible. Quote
Dan C Posted November 29, 2021 Posted November 29, 2021 Hi @roman116, I can confirm that the SVG specification doesn't natively support blending modes, you can have blend modes via CSS, but the standalone SVG file does not support it - hence these are converted to 'Normal' on export from Affinity. I hope this clears things up! Quote
