Blurred PDF Image

Question

I once had a separate account for this site; but maybe I created it under a now defunct email address. We can settle that later.

A month ago I was a guest of my County. The local police yesterday did what they could to provide an image (mugshot). However, it is in PDF format. Right now I am accessing the image and your site through Safair on Mac Monterey. I saw nothing in this system that would help me to restore a sharp image from the blurred one they sent me. Your company should have the most expertise in the PDF format. Is there a way to create a sharp image from this? I want to use it on merchandise. Thank you. Adobe Express was the online feature that I just used upon finding it through Google Search (I hesitated to call it an app). That did not upload the image. Yesterday I made a copy of the PDF and changed the extension to jpg. I could not post this with the .jpg attached; and it would not upload the original .pdf.

Hi @louis_1627

You might have to convert the PDF to an image format to improve it. I wondered if these resources might help?

and then

Is this similar to what you did?

Best,

I hope this site doens't pick up this addition as a response.  Returning to this post, I am disappointed to find that there is no edit button.  Anyway, you should all know that I have Windows 10, soon to receive an upgrade, available in case there is something available to those users that will clean up my PDF image.
