Issues and Bugs

Please report issues to https://github.com/norbusan/pgf-blur/issues

Currently (as of TL2018) multiple drop shadows can produce problems with xelatex (dvipdfmx) when including a pdf with drop shadows into another pdf. A typical error is

xdvipdfmx:fatal: Loop in object hierarchy detected. Broken PDF file?

This will be fixed in TL2019 with an update to dvipdfmx. luatex and pdftex do not exhibit this problem.

Ich finde es gut, wenn sich jemand um die Verbesserung der package kümmern möchte.
Wenn du willst kannst du gerne die Rolle des Maintainers übernehmen.  Ich werde
selber wahrscheinlich keine Zeit mehr haben, mich darum zu kümmern.  So lange
die Doku einen Hinweis behält, dass die ursprüngliche Version von mir kam,
bin ich glücklich.
