I have the following equation environment with cases:
\documentclass[preview,border=12pt]{standalone}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation*}
\operatorname{atan2}(y,x) := \begin{cases}
\arctan\frac{y}{x} & \mathrm{if}\ x > 0\\
\arctan\frac{y}{x} + \pi & \mathrm{if}\ x < 0,\ y \geq 0\\
\arctan\frac{y}{x} - \pi & \mathrm{if}\ x < 0,\ y < 0\\
+\pi/2 & \mathrm{if}\ x = 0,\ y > 0\\
-\pi/2 & \mathrm{if}\ x = 0,\ y < 0\\
0 & \mathrm{if}\ x = 0,\ y = 0
\end{cases}
\end{equation*}
\end{document}
For some reason, the line of the brace is weirdly dotted:

How can I get a nice continuous line there?
Update:
Here is a screenshot of the same thing in the newest Adobe Acrobat Reader; 400% Zoom:

Update #2:
After zooming in even more, I just realized that the symbols which build the brace are pixelated instead of being smooth vectors like all other font glyphs. What could be the reason for this?
