RE: Problems with saving figures as eps

That's more or less what is said in the howto page I sent.

I spent far too long trying to work around this bug in ghostscript. In the end, the best solution I could find was to turn off graphics antialiasing while leaving text antialiasing turned on. I did this via the following line in ~/.gv:

GV.gsX11AlphaDevice: -sDEVICE=x11 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dMaxBitmap=10000000 - dNOPLATFONTS

Regards,
Philip
