bad quality drawing when printing (Solid Works)
(OP)
I'm using Solid Works and I'v got a big problem. Everytime when I draw a crooked line it's not one straight line but it's build in steps. (see the picture) How can I adjust this. It doesn't look that good when I print out the picture

Also, increasing the Screen Resolution of your monitor would help.

Here's image illustrating.
Now we zoom in
Anti aliasing is a technique many programs use to "blur" the edge so that it appears smooth. I think Solidworks has an anti aliasing option under Tools/Options/Performance or Display I think. Not sure if it will help here.

There are other image formats that do not display in the way Gildashard mentions, i.e. vector based. .DXF, .AI and .PDF (I think) work this way.
SanRox - try exporting your drawing to a PDF and then printing from there. Of course, then your smooth line becomes limited by the accuracy (dpi for instance) of your printer.
