This is really weird, as this is just PDFKit. The only thing for font rendering
is anti-aliasing, which is either on or off, there is no third setting. And
that can be controlled in the preferences, but apparently does not do enough.
So what else does Preview do, do they know something we don't do?
Just one thing, that really should not matter, is the hidden preference setting
for image interpolation (see the Wiki). Could someone try and play with that to
see if that makes a difference?
