built-in Zotero PDF reader blur

Text in the built-in pdf reader is not as clear as in the chrome browser.
  • in general or for specific PDFs? If the latter, we'd want examples -- either link to or email to support@zotero.org with a link to this tread.
  • In general, when I zoom in on a PDF to 400% in the Chrome browser, the text remains clear, but in the built-in PDF reader, it becomes blurry.
  • Yes, this is a limitation of PDF.js (the underlying library behind Zotero Reader). It restricts the maximum page resolution. For normal PDF pages this isn't a problem, but for pages containing, for example, schematic diagrams or web pages this can sometimes be a problem.

    We might try to increase the limits in future.
  • I saw that someone said that he solved this problem, maybe you can refer to it

  • The problem is different. If you want to know — it's about maximum optimal Canvas HTML element dimensions and memory consumption.
