Saving a page to PDF turns background to black, exporting to PNG works as expected.

 

Issue happens on Mac, tried with Firefox and safari. Cleared cache and cookies, also tried incognito mode, problem persists. Same result on the iPhone app, please help.

I installed acrobat reader and it shows the correct colors, it seems the problem was not the generated PDF but the preview app and browsers not rendering correctly the file.

 

Thank you.

It looks like the problem affects the elements with blending mode set to Screen, I have more than one. A solid background is exported correctly to PDF but that doesn't solve the problem with this current design.

Hi! Did you check if you have a transparent background in your file? Maybe try setting a solid background helps?

I really need to print this file, please help. Nothing I have tried works, still getting the PDF with the wrong background.
