The JPEG is just a raster rendering of the source vector image (PDF). It does no have 'fonts' in the image, only image!

The problem here is the conversion from PDF to a raster (array of pixels) image. Specifically ghostscript, the fonts it uses, its density (resolution), and how the PDF scales its internal raster image (the background).

That is quite a complex relationship, and PDF's are often not designed well to cope with this.
