Gradient hatch doesn't vector print

It’s excellent to finally be able to bake gradient hatches with grasshopper!
however I’ve found that some will not print to PDF with the Rhino PDF printer.

The attached GH script (Rhino8) will bake this

the Print dialogue displays the green gradient incorrectly as all yellow

When printed to vector PDF i cannot open the file in Acrobat

however chrome gives this


As you can see the gradient labelled G (from Yellow to Cyan) is completely missing.

Raster PDF is fine.
I do not have the Adobe PDF writer yet to test if that works any better.

It appears others have had a similar problem, so it’s possible not related to grasshopper
