color gradient missing in svg file

[quoala0]

Running "latex gradtest.tex" twice and then "dvisvgm --keep --font-format=WOFF2 --grad-overlap --output=gradtest.svg gradtest.dvi" the color gradients in the tex file are missing when displaying the svg file in firefox. When processing the tex file with "pdflatex gradtest.tex" and viewing the pdf file everything looks fine. I would like to have the gradient colors in the svg file too. gradtest.pdf gradtest.txt

Add class option dvisvgm then it works.

\documentclass[a2paper, landscape, dvisvgm]{scrartcl}

Alternative ways:

• add \def\pgfsysdriver{pgfsys-dvisvgm.def} before loading tikz;
• pass package option dvisvgm to tikz (not supported yet, see https://github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/issues/1281).

dvisvgm doesn't support PostScript shading patterns as used in your example file. Only a subset of shading fills (PS operator shfill) are processed. As @muzimuzhi recommended, you could use the dvisvgm backend driver instead of the dvips one.

Hi Martin,

thank you very much for your quick answer.

I'll try your recommendation.

Will it be possible to use hyperref via pdf that way as well?

I found that hytertex via pdf to svg does not work at all:

And in my application I would like to have both features - hyperref and gradient fills!

 

Thanx in advance

Sounds like a new question. Open a new issue with a new example?
