That is a good point. When I open the PDF (created by Ghostscript)
with the IrfanView image viewer (version 4.27), I do see horizontal
and vertical stripes. And, as told already last night, when I open the
same PDF with the Adobe Reader (version 7.1.4 [I know it's not the
latest version]), there are no stripes.
May be, that it has to do with the way, how the vector graphic is
convertet to a bitmap.
