Nicolas Hoibian commented on PDFBOX-870:
----------------------------------------
Is it the image you intended to upload?
- The shapes are not antialiased (examine the triangles).
- The font is indeed odd. In the pdf-renderer sample and in Mac OS X Preview,
the font is a serif whereas the PDFBox renders' fonts is sans-serif (thought
they are indeed antialiased). Also the PDFBox output sample I uploaded 3.5
years ago has better character spacing than the newer upload.

> 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
