Hi, Known issue in 1.2.x, I believe largely corrected in 1.3.3+ Note the bitmap image export was mainly designed for exporting screen shots of documents for web sites. This originally was started as a python plug-in iirc. This may or may not be fixable in 1.2.5, owning to the different way the canvas works in 1.2.x vs. 1.3.x Peter
