Noah,
Why not write to Ideals and ask?
https://www.ideals.illinois.edu/contact
The librarians at Illinois at IDEALS should be able to help with your query. When/if you get the answer, share it with us?

Dear All,

What causes this "jellification" of this document<http://www.ideals.illinois.edu/handle/2142/45719>? Compare with a normal version<http://archive.org/details/evaluationofscho08flex> of the exact same document as found on the Internet Archive. It almost looks like the file was changed from a raster to a vector image.

I've run into it a few times – although never with anything I've scanned – and the best explanation I can think of is that it has something to do with text recognition software. For text only documents it's not a major issue, but unfortunately I've seen it turn some diagrams into an unreadable mess.

Sincerely,
Noah Stegman Rechtin
