I made some graphs in Origin and I need to export them. However, when I do, the traces look terrible because they are not anti-aliased (although the text and other parts are fine). Here's a fragment of a graph (300 dpi, no resizing):



The "steps" are 1 pixel in size. However, even if I export as EPS, it still exports a line made up of a series of horizontal & vertical segments. Here's the same fragment of a graph after I opened it in a vector program and zoomed in:



The dark blue line is the data and the smoothed corners are added by the vector program.

Is there anything I can do so that this doesn't look ridiculously pixelated, aside from exporting at 10+ times the size I want and resizing? Even if I do that, it doesn't look great, AND it's very slow and tedious to do that for every graph.

I'm using OriginPro 8.5 SR1 on Windows 7.

We are looking to add the ability to switch anti-aliasing on/off, but in 8.5 this doesn't seem to be possible.
