When I do:
display file.pdf
it shows this:
I can't resize the little window that it adds but I can remove it by clicking on the x. I can also remove the checkerboard effect that comes from assuming transparency, I think, with:
display -alpha opaque file.pdf
The text is now rough and slightly hard to read. It seems to have been rendered in black and white where anti-aliasing should have used more shades/colors.
How can this be fixed?

You need to remove the alpha channel, rather than making it opaque — this will render the alpha information correctly (including anti-aliasing), then remove it.
The small window shown above the main window is used to scroll around the document.
