Description: I have a PDF copy of Jan Tschichold's "The Form of the Book" and each time I make a screenshot from it and insert in Writer as PNG, the text on the image is displayed somewhat blurry. This is really very strange. If I insert the same screenshots as JPG, the text on them look sharp. And if I type some random text in Times New Roman 11 or 10 pt italic, and save it as png, their text is displayed in Writer sharply as well. What may be the problem?

No difference for me Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 1bb0e177124d5d6661b72df6c7d848fb23639652 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.3 Build 9600; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL); UI: en-US Calc: CL @JSV Could you copy Help -> About dialog (press the copy button) and paste it here. [Maybe it's caused by Skia/Vulkan]
@Telesto Here it is: Version: 7.2.4.1 (x86) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 27d75539669ac387bb498e35313b970b7fe9c4f9 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.1 Service Pack 1 Build 7601; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Before opening this bug, I tried to ask the same thing on Superuser. Might be useful: https://superuser.com/questions/1697097/png-image-is-blurry
As I see, it is only a LibreOffice render issue. If do you export as PDF, you will see the image in the same way that in whatever image editor (not Draw). Same result if inserting a JPG copy of the original image. LO 7.1.8.1.
I don't see a difference or it's so subtle that I don't notice. LO has problem with DPI not set, which is not the case here.
(In reply to jsv from comment #1) > Created attachment 177258 [details] > document No difference here. Do you still see this with 7.4 or unstable? Set to NEEDINFO. Change back to UNCONFIRMED, if the problem persists. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away. Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ec2f1d73936c9d8cee83c0887170e9ecb8f044ba CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 22621; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_FI); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
Created attachment 184562 [details] Screenshot @Buovjaga Well the bug title is probably misleading. I think I see the 'problem'. The image isn't blurry/fuzzy/smeared (except for being low resolution) There is slightly difference in sharpness between IrfanView & LibreOffice. See screenshot. Format -> Image -> Filters -> Sharpen does improve things a notch. I don't see a difference between JPG/PNG as the original poster suggests.
