"With half a million new lines of code, the OpenOffice
developers have invested considerable time and effort in improving
the office suite's anti-aliasing capabilities. Pixelated drawings,
charts and characters are now a thing of the past: compared with
previous versions, the latest edition sports noticeably smoother
edges.
"It is worth mentioning that the anti-aliasing feature
technically only works with vector graphics. Resizing raster
graphics, whether imported or created in OpenOffice, will still
result in the typical quality loss. Since all the objects, charts
and characters drawn in OpenOffice are vectorised by default,
however, this only really affects bitmaps. The anti-aliasing
feature can be enabled/disabled in the "Options" dialog under
"OpenOffice.org/View" by checking or un-checking "Graphics
output/Use Anti-Aliasing"
