I am not sure that you are using the best workflow. As @Monika Gause said, you can bring the AI into InDesign or perhaps try exporting at a higher resolution. You can always take care of the compression out of InDesign because if you bring it in so low then compress, then you will likely have a poor quality image to post.

So those lines are not in the PNG? Even when you look closely? Then it's not something you could adjust in Illustrator.

 

Why don't you place the AI file (PDF compatible) in InDesign?
