> Hi
> I am a user of pdf-renderer from java.net, and I am looking into the pdf to 
> image part of pdfbox.
> So far it seems that pdfbox can render more of the pdf that are problematic 
> with pdf-renderer, but for those that work in both, the pdf-to-image output 
> is prettier for pdf-renderer, as both the font and shapes/path/lines are 
> anti-aliased.
> With PDFbox, the text is sometimes antialiased, but never the shapes/drawings.
> Is there a way to have shapes antialiased ?
> I am using the latest version from svn.
> Here are some examples in the difference of rendering
