Thanks Heinz. That's really strange, because when I issue the same
command on my mac, I'm still getting the stripes (same file size
though). The appearance is slightly different if I view the pdf in
Preview, Safari or in Acrobat. But they all have stripes.

I just tried the same thing on Linux, and then went and used Distiller
on a Windows machine. Same deal. How can different people be getting
different results with the same file? Maybe my eyes are the problem?!

Cheers,

Matt
