This is nonsense.  TeX-PDF-mode-on is an internal routine just to be
used from the parsing routines.  It is not equivalent to (TeX-PDF-mode
1), and if you want automatic PDF mode, you should just
M-x customize-variable RET TeX-PDF-mode RET
anyway.

Well, wherever the color in the PostScript is set to something
explicit, this color change is followed.  As I explained, there is not
much more than setting canvas and drawing color at the start of the
picture and hoping for the best.
