I looked into this today. I have noticed it too. I believe you see this
happening only in continuous mode. In one-page mode pages should look
crisp.
The problem seems to be that goo_canvas is attempts to do subpixel
positioning. In that case, (I think) it antialises the pixbuf, making it
blurry.
I have forced the pages to start always at pixel boundary. But... the
problem still appears during scrolling. one moment the page looks good,
you scroll a bit, and the page looks a bit blurry.
pull my changes and let me know what you think.
worse case scenario we might have to catch the scrolling event and
reposition any visible page at a pixel boundary (I think that will fix
it).
