You cannot specify "HardwareAntialiasingQuality"->0 locally. The only value that matters is the one at the global scope (i.e. the one in the Preferences dialog). All of the Antialiasing specs are superfluous as well.

Did you try SVG instead? Graphics are easily imported into e.g. PowerPoint and Edge. Text and a filled Plot scale nicely. Downside: Plots 6x larger than JPEG and my ContourPlot files grow from 240KB to 34MB.

Which version do you try this? What happens on the hardware side is really hard to control. Even with all those rendering options.

I can not (on Mac) copy the behavior you see. i see also mixed colors, despite the antialiasing options.

I had to explicitly run the following settings to get it to work in Mac:

method={"HardwareDepthBuffer","HardwareDepthPeeling","BSPTree","Software"};
method=method[[3]]
SetOptions[$FrontEndSession,RenderingOptions->{"Graphics3DRenderingEngine"->method}];
SetOptions[EvaluationNotebook[],RenderingOptions->{"Graphics3DRenderingEngine"->method}];
CurrentValue[$FrontEndSession,{"Antialiasing"}]=False;
CurrentValue[EvaluationNotebook[],{"Antialiasing"}]=False;
CurrentValue[$FrontEnd,{"Antialiasing"}]=False;

All other methods gave me still some antialiasing…

Hi,

I tried these options, but it's still not working on Windows! Thanks
