Sorry, you can't. It was an option when 7 was in beta, but removed in the final. If you have Vista, or have access, you can use that version of Paint on 7

I use Paint.net and Photoshop CS3 but most of the time MS Paint is perfectly satisfactory for what I need at the current moment, unfortunately it has the AA "feature"

Yeah, many people complained about it. Hard to do pixel perfect when the smooth type is on. A Guy
