There is some problem with our GhostScript 6.53 not doing the
anti-aliased mode of gv. Turn off "Antialias" in the "State" menu and
your page will get visible. You can save this setting in "State"/"gv
Options" dialog.
The Acrobat Reader problem is really strange, can you print into a file
also from acroread and look at the resulting file with gv? For me it
does not look like a printer driver issue.
