Happy to know this issue is tracked. Been meaning to file one myself.

At the moment this isn't supported, but one idea is to make this dynamic. That
is, re-render the page in higher DPI as the user zooms in. Obviously this is a
much bigger task than just allowing the user the ability to render at desired
DPI (say at the point of opening/inserting a PDF), but ultimately it will give
the best user-experience.

The other options are 1) add a user setting for all PDF imports to be at a
desired DPI, or 2) pop-up an import settings window when the user opens/inserts
a PDF that prompts the user to choose the desired DPI.

As a user, I'd certainly prefer the dynamic rendering with zoom-in and
zoom-out, in spite of the higher cost of implementing it.
