Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-870:
----------------------------------------
The ones described in PDFBOX-1800 and PDFBOX-1701 and PDFBOX-1689.
To summarize:
1- Don't use the broken Arial font that is with PDFBOX, use the OS Arial font
instead
2- Map non embedded TTF fonts to TTF fonts included with the OS
3- Use fallback solutions if a font isn't found
1 brings copyright problems, 2 & 3 are OS dependent.
> PDF-To-IMAGE output is not anti-aliased

> 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
