There are a number of problems trying to convert complicated svg into pdf. 
By complicated I mean it contains transparency, effects or other similar 
things that require drawing images.
The pdf transcoder does not handle any transparency so transparent objects 
or shading come out badly especially if the background is non white.
It is likely that the only reasonable solution for such svg images is 
simply to convert the whole thing into an image (eg. jpg) that is directly 
embedded into the pdf.

If it is only a part of the svg that has a problem then it would help if 
transparency was implemented for pdf.
