Anti-aliasing

Anti-Aliasing

Anti-aliasing is a method of reducing the “jaggies,” a staircase-like effect also called aliasing that appears along slanted lines on computer images. Anti-aliasing works by creating color values that are intermediate between the object color and the background color, and then using those values to fill in the steps of the staircase.

The disadvantages of anti-aliasing are that file size increases and you get intermediate colors along the edges of your objects.
