Jim,
	Actually, gv has those features.  (Look in the menus for
anti-aliasing...  Maybe you need a more recent version of ghostview?)  And
zooming?  Try the middle or right mouse button.  I don't remember which.
You can zoom to any level.

	What gv is missing that acroread has is the ability to cut and
paste text inside of a pdf document.  Not to mention the hyperlinks that
were mentioned before.
