I was running the pdf light viewer on GoDaddy successfully until GoDaddy shut off ImageMagick/imagick due to a security flaw. I switched my server to AWS and installed the latest ImageMagick/imagick library. The pdf light viewer works again but the quality of the images in the converted pdf is now visibly lower than when I ran it within GoDaddy even though the quality settings have remained unchanged at:
JPEG compression quality = 60
JPEG resolution = 300
I notice that there is another bug of a similar nature: https://support.wp.teamlead.pw/q/words-choppy-after-conversion/
Based on my symptoms and the symptoms reported in the previous bug report I would hypothesize that the quality settings are not being passed through to the ImageMagick software.
According to the imagmagick documentation – the default resolution is 72 dots per inch which appears to be the low quality I am seeing here.
See http://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/ImageMagick/beta/ImageMagick-6.8.5-5/www/command-line-options.html
