Thanks for your help with this. I went back to my original data and my images are anti-aliased. I guess I was expecting a bit more "blur". The Adobe SVG viewer seems to do more filtering in its "High Quality" mode but the Batik output is much better.

I've attached the text01 example from the SVG spec, an antialiased png file resulting from batik-rasterizer, and a crop with the pixels blown up to 400% and with an opaque background so you can see the antialiasing more clearly. -- David Eppstein http://www.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/ Univ. of California, Irvine, School of Information & Computer Science --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
