When you zoom the document fully, every single text character is surrounded by a halo of pixellation.

I think Polarik has said in the past that this is clear evidence of digitized text being inserted onto a blank or erased background.

In this case, even the seal of Kenya is so digitized (if that's what this artefact is).

Or the application of a sharpening algorithm on the image. This is all interetsing, but I'll wait.

I notice that as well, however, I think it may be an artifact of the JPEG compression. I use to work with images alot, and depending on the amount of compression, you could see this artifacting being introduced onto documents that were compressed from a RAW image, or higher quality Jpeg.
