How can I get rid of the white lines caused due to rendering issues?

I have tried most of the workarounds suggested on the internet, but none of them helped me in getting rid of these white lines when I print/save/export the plot as a pdf file.

Edit: I just found out that this issue gets resolved in Matlab R2019b version. I was using Matlab R2016b earlier.

Can you share the .fig file or the data so that the issue can be recreated ?

Hello Subhadeep,

I have attached the .fig file for your reference.

The issue arises when I save the figure as a pdf file.

Best,

Chirag

There is a tool to clean this up:

See discussion about this issue here:

One other option is to save as a high res png and embed into your pdf...

I realize none of these are great options. Sorry, but I think those are your options...

@Ted Shultz: is there clean for SVG format or only for EPS?
