<P><SPAN LANG="en-au"><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana">you are having more luck than me.. I am using the following and getting a non-antialiased line still. Perhaps antialiasing has been removed from the cartoline's capabilities in later versions ?</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="en-au"><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana">it would be great to see antialiasing applied to all symbols and/or a geometry type (point/line/poly) independent way to antialias features. unfortunately until we can make maps that look 'pretty' we're not going to be able to replace our 'big company' mapping server.</FONT></SPAN></P>
