The freeform gradient is visible when saved as ai but not visible in pdf format. I have tried changing all the gradient colours to process colours instead of spot colors but still no luck.
A non-destructive solution is to use the Rasterize Effect in the Illustrator section of the Effects menu. This will create a rasterized version that will retain the ability to edit the points. If you need to make a lot of changes I'd suggest disabling the Rasterize effect temporarily so it doesn't need to keep re-rasterizing the gradient.
Note that this effect is not the same as the Rasterize item found in the Object menu, which is destructive.
