How did you scale the image?  By resizing the PNG file?  If so that
probably doesn't give the optimal quality.  If we resize from the SVG
source, and if the SVG references a vector font with "hinting", then
it is possible that the text will be clearer at smaller sizes.  In
theory that should help with the letter scaling.  Not sure about the
light gray.
