You didn't provide a (public) testcase, i.e. all required information to
reproduce (new) issue on developer's machine. For example: the test.pdf fil=
e to
test, command(s) to run, broken and expected output image(s), etc.

Probably, you can't share needed information, because of embedded
commercial/copyrighted font(s), confidential text in pdf, etc. Perhaps, the=
re
is solution for this, if find/create pdf file, which uses public font(s) and
text, which reproduces (new) issue. Then possible to share this pdf file wi=
th
developers, so they can (try to) confirm this issue and test solution(s) for
it.

If text was readable, but blurry somehow, then possible to try to use png
output (instead of jpg):
% convert -verbose test.pdf image.png
or "-alpha remove" option for jpg output, if this was the case:
% convert -verbose -alpha remove test.pdf image.jpg

You can try to check some stackoverflow.com pages about mentioned issue and
solutions:

> What kind of debug output will get us a step closer?
If you need some kind of debug output, I tried to explain how to create it =
on
comment #6 and comment #7.

On the other hand, you can try to wait response from actual maintainer(s). =
But
need to note, that Ghostscript (doceng@ for print/ghostscript9-agpl-base) a=
nd
ImageMagick (kwm@ for graphics/ImageMagick) ports have different assigned
maintainers, than FreeType (gnome@ for print/freetype2).

Or just use other method(s)/tool(s), which works. Also possible, that this
(new) issue maybe fixed in next version(s) of affected software.
