Lars Torunski commented on PDFBOX-2750:
---------------------------------------

HINT: However, be aware that if you try to downscale an image by a factor of 
more than two (i.e., the scaled instance is less than half the size of the 
original), and you are using the BILINEAR or BICUBIC hint, the quality of the 
scaled instance may not be as smooth as you might like. ... you can use a 
multi-step approach when downscaling by more than two times; this helps prevent 
the information loss issue and produces a much higher quality result ... The 
basic idea here is to repeatedly scale the image by half (using BILINEAR 
filtering), and then, once the target size is near, perform one final scaling 
step to reach the target dimensions. ...
