      @Raaskot Click 'Expand Stroke' in the Export window and the paths should preserve their profiles.

      @vectoradmin I think this should be enabled by default.

        Thank you, @b77 🙂

        Wonderful, much better!
        Yet the right shape appears cropped. Any idea how to prevent this?

          @Raaskot It doesn't happen to me here. Can you post the file somewhere (Dropbox)?

            Here it is:

            Crop seems to match the bounding box area:

              @Raaskot it's requesting permission to access the file on your drive

                Hm, strange. Google link is supposed to be public.

                Here is another attempt:

                  @Raaskot that worked.
                  I went ahead and expanded the strokes (the black stroke inside the pink outline is clipped
                  I exported as a pdf and turned out as expected, not missing areas

                  I was able to replicate your issue if I had an active selection of the paths and did not expand the stroke first when exporting as a pdf

                    Thanks, @Boldline
                    Very good, I see. Now it works. Made it work after applying ctrl-shift-s (expand stroke)

                    Yet strange that this issue doesn't appear for the left shapes part:

                      @Raaskot Looks like the cropped shape issue is a bug. Will be fixed ASAP.

                        Cool! Thanks 🙂

                        Otherwise: Very useful and nice programme compared to both Affinity Designer, Inkscape and AI.
