Thanks to Ryo Furue, Pierre St-Laurent, Andrew Wittenberg and Jaison. My problem with spurious lines and ripples in a shade plot was not coming from the conversion step done by Fprint (gksm2ps), but from subsequent conversions. I work on a mac, and hadn't quite focussed on the obvious fact that I ordinarily print ps from preview -- which converts to pdf. Turning off anti-aliasing of text and line art (in preview, this is under preferences/pdf) solved my problem. My ps2eps conversion utility was also introducing this problem, so I saw spurious ripples even when including encapsulated ps in latex compilations. Perhaps I could also ferret out a solution with an appropriate command line option to ps2eps, but I have a second conversion utility, ps2epsi, which did a clean conversion. --Matthew On Feb 10, 2008, at 12:05 AM, Ryo Furue wrote:
