[Framers] PDF Images are Pixelated when imported into FM11

Hi,

I don't actually know. I rarely import PDF into anything. I see PDF as a
destination format, so I would import the file from which the PDF is
created, be it EPS, png, or what have you.

I guess one use case might be to show a form or something. In that case I
would import the PDF because importing Word, et al.,  would not have the
desired effect. However, in that case, I might be stuffing a 8.5*11 inch
image into my 6-inchtext column, so I would expect the screen display to
reflect that downsizing and omission of pixels.
