Hi,

Yes, the only output format that currently supports transparency is svg. 

There are couple of workarounds:
* use svg format and an external tool such as inkscape to convert to whatever
format
* do not use transparency and replace by a light gray, something like:


set (0, "defaultaxesgridalpha", 1, "defaultaxesgridcolor", [.8 .8 .8])


* use "graphics_toolkit ('gnuplot')" which supports transparency

Retitling to better reflect that the root cause is transparency in printout
