It still doesn't has AA fonts, so must be issue with font in pdf that author has chosen? Or fonts in my box? It looks very smooth in Windows with Adobe Acrobat Reader. > > BTW: I am happy to make a screenshot if you want to see it. > >Yes, it would be interesting to see one.

Here are two screenshots of Ghostview and Adobe Acrobat Reader. http://www.mezzweb.com:81/images/pdf-ghostview.png (68k) http://www.mezzweb.com:81/images/pdf-adobe.png (174k) It's weird, in the Acrobat's options show fonts as AA, but not in the pdf files. I played with the options, but I seem to not able get it yet. In the Ghostview's options has AA sets as "-sDEVICE=x11alpha" by default, so is it fine? If anyone know the better way to put in there, please let me know. Thanks, Mezz _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
