How to draw a subpixel line

Question

In the following code, I'm trying to draw two lines: One with a subpixel width (0.5) and the other with 1px width:

        var img = new Bitmap(256, 256);
        Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromImage(img);
        graphics.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias;

        // Draw a subpixel line (0.5 width)
        graphics.DrawLine(new Pen(Color.Red, (float)0.5), 0, 100, 255, 110);

        // Draw a single pixel line (1 width)
        graphics.DrawLine(new Pen(Color.Red, (float)1), 0, 110, 255, 120);

        img.Save(@"c:\temp\test.png", ImageFormat.Png);

        graphics.Dispose();

        img.Dispose();

However, in the generated image, both lines appear the same width:

Is there a way for the top line to appear sub-pixel (0.5px)?

Edit: After some research, AGG might be the way to go, of which there is a c# port.

Answer 1

According to the documentation for Pen ,

The Width property is set to the value specified in the width parameter. A width of 0 will result in the Pen drawing as if the width were 1.

It may be that that applies to any width less than one, not just widths that are precisely equal to 0.
