Hi,
How do you set up the postscript device? What are you using to view the
postscript (GhostView?), which version? Some versions of Ghostview have
problems anti-aliasing properly. Does the problem occur in the printed
copy?
Example of other people getting this problem..

If it is Ghostview, there's an option to turn off anti-aliasing, see if
that helps.
Chris.

Hi Chris,
many thanks for you hint. It was indeed the problem with the
anti-aliasing in GhostView. The problem did not have anything to do
with IDL. Works fine now.
Cheers,
Sebastian
