I'm assuming that you are referring to printouts from the PDFs.
If you're getting this in prints directly from OOo, then of course
your problem is most likely in OOo itself.
In the Distiller settings, go to "Images" and change all the
"Downsample" and "Compression" dropdowns to "Off."
Enter a high number (the max is 2400) into the "pixels
per inch" field. Save the profile with a new name so as
not to bollux up the default profile, then make a test PDF.
If this setting doesn't give you clean graphics either, then
your problem is still most likely in OOo.
If your test PDF's graphics look ok with no downsampling
or compression and their file sizes are acceptable to you,
problem solved. The file sizes will most likely be
unacceptably huge, however, so the next step is to turn
downsampling and compression back on and adjust the
values. I'd start with quality and dpi high, then lower them
until I begin to see unaccepable effects.

Most of the graphic elements are the one's I'd been using, but now they
all appear coarsely pixellated in PDF and printout.
