Blurry text, especially when outputting to PDF

My workflow was, import the scanned PDF into GIMP and then output it as a PNG and then a PDF. The compression on the PNG is set to 5. [Does this make any difference? Setting the compression at 9 gives me virtually the same size file. Only when you go down to 0 do you get a much larger file.] Automatic Pixel format, save color values, save resolution, save creation time, save background color.  

The PDF has the auto-selected options of apply layer masks, convert bitmaps, and omit hidden layers. 

What PDF property utility are you using?


[Sorry, this part of the post disappeared, and in case I need to check it again, I want to make sure the options I chose/were chosen for me for export are posted somewhere.]
