"Could you not get round the distortion in PDF if you make a blow-up scan from the Japanese text on the thesis page"
Sure.... if I had a physical copy of the thesis! :-) Which I don't....
I think I got my copy from University Microfilms, or whatever they call themselves these days, and what you get from them these days is a PDF file....
I have put out a call to my co-conspirator Jason, who does actually have a physical copy of the thesis, but I suspect that if it's from microfilm, it's not going to have any more resolution than this, alas. We'll see....
