Dear Jean,

thank you very much for the quick reply!

Unfortunately, changing to any of the older ghostscript versions I tried 
(9.22,9.23,9.24) didn't seem to solve the problem. I have now upgraded 
my scribus to the developers version 1.5.4, which seems to work fine. 
The only bug I found right away is the fact that the label of the axes 
seems to be behind the figure background. It can, however, solved by 
some ungrouping. ;)

Best wishes,
Georg
