Yes, but this is only true as long as your graphic can be represented reliably in the target format. And yours cannot. It is like asking for conversion of a vector image of a circle into a target format that only supports straight lines (also vector format, but without support for splines). http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=9551 If this is your own graphic, you need to alter it in such a way that it will be representable with what PDF is capable of doing. See the chapter on smooth shading. You can do a lot with that, but it might require a bit of extra effort (and then maybe hunting developers to fix rendering bugs; Apple doesn't know how to render smooth shading properly and even used to crash).
