Anti-Alias Filter

 

The anti-alias filter will “soften” hard edges in the selected area.  In reality (as far as I know) it’s not possible to do TRUE antialiasing in this way.  This requires knowledge of the theoretical shape of an object, which is not what a bitmap provides, but this filter is effective enough.

 

The anti-alias filter produces a very subtle effect, but it should be just about visible in this example.  Note that this image is a Jpeg, which goes some way to hiding the effect.
