Hi Sweetbook, 
 
 




The border is fine. But the edge of the picture is not gone. 
 

Due to the complexity in the reported issue, we are still validating the issue and we will update the further details on May 15 2020. 


The coordinates of PhotoFrame were ignored and OpacityMask was not processed. 
 

We do not have support for rendering opacity mask in canvas while converting XPS to PDF. We have already added in feature request for this. But we do not have any immediate plans to implement this feature.  
 
You can tract the feature status using below link, 
https://www.syncfusion.com/feedback/9302 
 


The empty space in the viewbox is painted black and not transparent. 
The transparent area of the png image is painted black 
 

We have checked the reported issue and it is working properly in our end. The transparent is properly added in the converted PDF document.  
 
We have attached output PDF document for your reference.  
Please find the output document below, 
https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/ze/Documents-66380542  
 


I want to generate pdf like attached jpg. 
Can I use the syncfusion function to copy the page and flip it to create the same result without using tilemode? 
I hope the tilemode will fix the problem if there are no other features. 

We can able to generate the PDF like attached jpg to skip the tile mode in ImageBrush. If you want flip the image in PDF document you must use the Tile mode. 
 
Please let us know if you want any further details on this.

Ravikumar.

Hello.I paid for the license in April and never used syncfusion for this bug. The license has already been used for almost 3 months.I believe the problem will be solved, and the time spent waiting for updates and pre-developed programs with syncfusion is also a huge loss.It's a big problem not to know when there will be a bug fix update.I'm sorry, but I can't wait any longer for the ongoing delay.Thank you for your efforts. But now I want a refund.I have never used syncfusion properly, so please give me a full refund.Thank you for your confirmation.Regards,Junghun, Lee
