I've just zoomed in on a document in order to take a screenshot. However, the fonts don't look like vector fonts, and are pixelated somewhat. There are clear interpolation artifacts when zoomed in enough.
Why does it do this, and how can I avoid it?
I've heard that I should use the cm-super
package, but it seems that I have it installed.
Technical info:
I'm running Pop!_OS 20.10, which is a Linux distribution based on Ubuntu, which in turn is based on Debian
I have a full TeX Live installation made using the Perl install script

Note: this also happens when I don't import amsmath

show for your document? Are the fonts Type 1 or Type 3?
