I agree. xdvi is what prompted me into trying dvi mode again (and investigating dvipos), because of its excellent anti-aliasing. The only pdf viewer whose rendering quality might be comparable is the 'apparition' viewer, part of the fitz http://ccxvii.net/apparition/. Not ready for prime time yet, but it has lots of potential.
there was a time that gs did better rendering than acrobat but that wa slong ago; i think that acrobat's anti aliasing is ok (at least om my high res screen) also, the latest acrobats (esp v 8) do a pretty good job now on bitmap fonts Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
