I've been a little frustrated with this. When I view a low quality PDF on a university website, zooming in/out on firefox (v34.0 and v35.0.1 on linux is what I've tried) proves that the quality could be drastically improved. The original fonts looks like the pdf-lowqual.png file below: (unable to upload images on here) http://i59.tinypic.com/169kkcw.png

While zooming in or out, the font displays as normal "hypertext" or whathave you before going back to looking ugly again, as seen here: http://i61.tinypic.com/2gvptw0.png

Is there a way to permanently display the recognized text with local or internet fonts? I assume the text is recognized as that is what allows one to select text.

Use Adobe Reader to view PDF files in Firefox or View PDF files using Firefox’s built-in viewer are the current offerings for viewing pdfs in Firefox.

However, there are alternatives like embedding fonts into the pdf. I do also know that there are web safe fonts with similar function: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_typography#Web-safe_fonts
