Description Jamie Zawinski 2002-01-23 00:13:34 UTC
Right now, the "Antialiasing" menu item toggles between:

        ghostscript -sDEVICE=x11
and
        ghostscript -sDEVICE=x11alpha

Instead of the latter, it should be doing
 
       ghostscript -sDEVICE=x11 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4

The x11alpha device causes incorrect rendering.

Please see

eforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=101897&aid=505692&group_id=1897
for details.

I know there's as preference to change this, but the default is wrong.

Will be fixed in 3.5.8-14, thanks!
