This problem exhibits in Safari 4.0.3 and Chrome 5.0.342.3 dev. Firefox 3.5 renders the text with antialiasing as expected. See http://tom.preston-werner.com/random/canvas_rotated_textfill.html for a live demo. Steps to reproduce: Set ctx.font to a monospace typeface at a size of 10px or 7.5pt or smaller and use ctx.fillText() to write some text to the canvas. Actual results: The rendered text is not antialiased. Expected results: The rendered text should be properly aliased. 444182 1 thorton 2011-07-29 17:02:52 -0700 <rdar://problem/9560516> 444251 2 ap 2011-07-29 22:15:20 -0700 Duplicate of bug 4842? 444253 3 thorton 2011-07-29 22:17:32 -0700 (In reply to comment #2) > Duplicate of bug 4842?
