Package: qpdfview

Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
on many PDF files, the fonts displayed are a bit blurry and hard to
read at smaller font sizes.
The picture attached shows a comparison of the same pdf file with
qpdfview and evince. The more you zoom in the picture attached, the
more you will see the difference. Evince (right side) is sharp and
qpdfview (left side) is not.
I use a screen resolution of 3840 × 2160.
Thank you
Markus

Hello,
The only way I can reproduce this issue is by unticking the "Use device
pixel ratio" option (Edit > Settings > Graphics).
Can you confirm this fixes your issue?
