The pixelation is easily see at 1200% zoom, then if you see fonts document properties, the candidate for the pixelated symbols are classified as Type 3. Although at high DPI ~300. Also as far as I remember, if PDF or PS is generated from LaTeX without explicitly using Type 1 fonts, but with METAFONT fonts, pixelated Type 3 is generated. ____________________________________________________________________________________ We won't tell.
