Comments about the last two screenshots:
1) The smaller image has been affected by exactly the averaging effect I
mentioned In particular you can see, on the left side of vertical
strokes in letters, that averaging mid-grey and white pixels gives a
light grey one and this is certainly affecting the perceived width of
the strokes. Zooming the image by a factor of 150%-200% makes this
more obvious.
2) you altered the aspect ratio of the image when you shrank it and this
has exaggerated the 'blockiness' of the letters:
original 324 x 361 AR=0.9
smaller 133 x 196 AR=0.68
This has had quite a large effect on the smaller letters.
3) The linear reduction is to 41% horizontally and 54% vertically, so
each final pixel has replaced 4.49 original pixels and no smoothing
or resampling was used by the resizing algorithm. No wonder the
diagonal edges on the big letters have jaggies.
