Hmm, it doesn't really look fine on screen here...
The embedded object is bigger than the available page width (it goes into the margins).

KIllustrator doesn't support zooming in paintContent (no app except KWord
currently does...) so this leads to problems. I deactivated "zoom when printing"
for that reason, but this still means that you get wrong results on screen
at zooms other than 100%. Were you using another zoom when you looked on screen ?
