When I use the pen tool or the lasso tool in PS CS4 and I draw curves, my curves are all jagged – not smooth.

Is there a way to make PS CS4 automatically smooth my lines like Illustrator does?

Make sure your image is a reasonable size. If it is only a few thousand pixels in area the lines will inevitably appear jagged. Experiment with a sample image 100 x 100 pixels in size and then with one 1000 x 1000 pixels.
