Antialiasing is set in the Graphics object of your control, for example with
a Form:

Graphics g = frm.CreateGraph ics();
g.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.A ntiAlias;
g.DrawLine(...) ;
g.Dispose();

Sorry, I used C# code in the answer ... :

Dim g as Graphics
g = frm1.CreateGrap hics()
g.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.A ntiAlias
....

Set the 'Graphics' object's 'SmootingMode' to an appropriate value
before drawing the line.

From: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagettftext.php "color is the color index. Using the negative of a color index has the effect of turning off antialiasing." I'm using a bundled version of GD: 2.0.23 compatible. When using the function imagettftext() with a negative color to get a aliased text as stated in the docs the text gets grainy. Not antialised, and not aliased. Something in between (ugly!). I've tried several fonts....
