Sorry for the late reply ( it took sometime before I could try this one out) Indeed this clipping works nicely. I already started implementing my proposal with the temporary QImage, which also worked. but even for my simple testcases the resulting PDFs were 20 times bigger then the ones generated with the clipping you suggested.
