Thank you for the link, which I read.

I tried again to update my graphic card drivers - much
trouble and limited success and it takes a lot of time...

I installed Scilab 5.0.3, but when I run it (it introduces
itself as 5.0.2!) it takes three minutes to create
a figure the first time and all my other applications slow 
down as well.

And the figure is worse from the beginning than in Scilab
4.1.2: it is upside down, dots and lines don't fit (even
worse than after making a GIF from Scilab 4.1.2!) although
the dots are at least round.

So, if the figure is worse from the beginning in Scilab 5,
it does not matter if the export is better.
