I've looked in the archives for answers to the problem of transparent plots
appearing grey, and it seems that this is still an unsolved problem (at
least for me it is!). Does anyone have a solution to this?

Some details: I'm using png style graphics with netpbm on a Solaris system.
Some inline graphics appear transparent (i.e. I can see a coloured
background underneath) but most graphics appear with an opaque grey
background. I've set $TRANSPARENT_FIGURES=1;
