JDK-4726365 - RFE: Java 2D to support LCD optimized anti-aliased text (sub-pixel resolution)
Description
The fonts used for the help text are not anti-aliased, so they are difficult to read on some resolutions with certain monitors.  It would be preferable if this was an option for the default javahelp viewer.

EVALUATION Fonts can be changed using the setFont method. However, the problem needs to be handled in the JEditorPane class. Transfering to the swing group.
