There are a variety of potential difficulties that can make this
problematic.
1. PDF Version and compliance of the PDF file itself.
2. The lineage of the generating application and 'print' tool chain.

In desperation, at times I've had to open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator or
Inkscape, and export the geometries, and then transform them appropriately.
