Semitransparent objects is solid in rasterized image of PDF

  • We have a case where PDFs created from MS Word with drawing objects that are semi transparent are not rasterized correctly.

    It is easily reproduced:
    - Create new Office Word document
    - Insert some text
    - Create an arrow that is semi transparent over the text
    - Save/Export as a PDF
    - Use wPDFControl to render to a bitmap image

    Is there an option to avoid this? Is this something that can be addressed in the rendering code of the component?

    I have emailed files to illustrate the problem to the support email address.
