pdf's, grrr

ok, this is a serious annoyance getting to me now. whenever i publish a pdf, whether it be from illustrator, indesign, anything, any circle shapes look crusty round the edges, and not at all nice and "vector-y" like text etc.

ANY help on this will be grately appreciated.

ps. when you zoom reeeeaaaaly close in they look "ok"

its just curves / outlines. they just look pixelated, not anti-aliased, soooo annoying cos i present from pdfs all the time

Go to Edit -> Preferences -> tick the box that says "Smooth line art".

Et voila...
