pattern artifacts in pdf and eps

Show all headers | View raw

I use the filledcurves option in plot with gnuplot 4.4.3 for windows
32 under windows XP. As term I use eps or pdf (also tried pdfcairo) as
I want to include figures into pdflatex. I want to include the figures
in a paper, so they should be neat.
On screen the resultant graphics show strong artifacts, namely white
or black lines along edges of "tiles".
I found in some forums the hint that this are probably anti-aliasing
artifacts of the ps-viewer (gv 3.6.5 under cygwin) or the pdf-viewer
(tried acrobat reader 9.3, foxit 3.2, sumatra 1.8). Using gv with -
noantialias nearly removes the artifacts on screen, although I can
still make out the white lines. They are also present on the printout
(on a Kyocera PCL XL with 600 dpi).
With pdf output things are even worse.
