Hi,

I have a set of icons that are shapes of colour, multiplied over semi-transparent white (80% transparent) - to allow for any colour they are placed on to slightly show through. ai's and eps's work fine when placed - but I can't get the png export to honour the whites transparency, they all export as solid coloured shapes.

How-to

I understood you were talking about semi-transparent white (80%). But it seems that you are referring to the Multiply.

Blend modes are never kept in a PNG file. Only opacity will be saved.

These two images show the transparency issue - I have placed a black box behind the shapes. In illustrator the box is visible though the coloured shapes, however when I place a black box behind the exported png in photoshop the shapes are solid with no show-through.
