Hello again!

I mentioned a error with the pdf output in Pagestream 5.1.2 Pro for MorphOS:
I created a text box filled with text, and made the background of the box filled red with a gradient shape to white.
In the pdf is only shown a grey box with the text.
Is it the same error on other machines?

Regards!

Hello!

Didn`t try, but gradients are mentioned in PDF support limitations:https://pagestream.org/?action=Documents&id=827

I should read first the online documentation - expect sometimes to much....

As mentioned, it is unsupported in PDF in the current release. However,
it is on the list to fix! For now, you can select the box and render it
to an image and then import it and place behind the text to get a
similar result.

As Deron already mentioned, the current PDF export has some limitations regarding all the fancy alpha blending and gradient support which PageStream5 offers. As the PDF spec at least has support for all the blending and alpha primitives, this hopefully gets added in a future update.
