        <pre>Here's a PDF file that contains scanned (raster) b/w image @ 400dpi, together
with the result of its rendering with pdftoppm from two poppler releases:
0.20.5 & 0.24.0:

<a href="http://ge.tt/56fxgSp/v/0?c">http://ge.tt/56fxgSp/v/0?c</a>

The latter (newer version) produces a fuzzy image. In fact, I've also tried
version 0.22.x and it also gives fuzzy results. The effect is not specific to
the PDF file: it is reproduced on any PDF file that contains raster b/w images.

Meanwhile, pdfimages (ImageOutputDev) works just fine. So I figure it must be
the SplashOutputDev</pre>
