When I copy some drawing in Illustrator, it stores it in clipboard in 3 formats: bitmap, device independent bitmap and enhanced meta-file.

If drawing contains text, then meta-file version has no anti-aliasing.

Below are examples in MS Word

enter image description here

OneNote has no "Paste Special" so it always paste in EMF. Is it possible either to tell OneNote to paste not in EMF, or tell Illustrator to use anti-aliasing while storing picture with letters?

    Paste into Word or paint first, then copy the result?

Possibly what you are seeing is due to OneNote resizing the image you pasted.

After the image has been paste into OneNote, select the image and right-click on it.

In the pop-up there is the option to "Restore to Original Size".

Select this option to restore the image to its original size, hopefully removing the jaggies you are witnessing.

  • No, this didn't help. Restored image became bigger but still not anti-aliased.

I found a workaround!

  1. Download/Install One Note iPhone App
  2. Open a note
  3. Click the Share button and choose "Email Page". Your iPhone email client will convert it to a One Page PDF
  4. Email it to yourself and open the PDF.
  5. Open the PDF in Illustrator
