I am using Visio version 2101 (Build 13628.20380).
I can create shapes in Visio and add pattern fills to them. These shapes display as intended in Visio, with the correct pattern fills.
When I output to PDF using Visio's Publish as PDF feature, the pattern fills do not show up. The filled shapes just appear as having pure white fill in the PDF.
What's very strange is that certain shapes will have the fill rendered accurately in PDF while others will not. I have one page with some shapes that I drew a long time ago, probably in an earlier version of Visio, that are pattern-filled. I can create a new shape on the page and pattern-fill it. When I publish to PDF, the pattern fill renders accurately in the old shape, but the newly created shape renders in the PDF as having only pure white fill.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and/or discovered a solution?
