![]() ![]() It is far superior, but too many people and organisations do not use it in their workflows, sadly. LibreOffice has fantastic PDF export options. If you care more about the pictures blurring and the effect after removing it, I strongly suggest using a professional image editor WorkinTool Image. Another reason is that the image might be inserted into the document as an object, rather than as an image. This means that it doesn’t have enough pixels per inch, which can make it appear blurry. One reason is that the image might be low resolution. It just does not give you the control you need. There are several reasons why images might look blurry in Word. (Word thinks it knows better.) Word still compresses images when exporting to PDF, even with ‘no compress’ set in the File > Options > Advanced menu and in the Save options. Also, the resolution is higher but not really high - no better than 300dpi, I’d say, and probably less, even though source images are very hi-res and I chose ‘High Fidelity’. Note: I do not know which settings are important, I just note that this seems to work. Clicked on ‘Figure 2’ in running text and it took me to the caption of Figure 2. Turned on Create bookmarks using headings (Word bookmarks is greyed out….).Turned off PDF/A (this will kill hi res) (note - it is still on in the image below).Chose Options off the Save dialog a lot of options are greyed out …? Oh well, we’ll try anyway.Chose Compress Pictures and selected High fidelity (see attached screenshot).We assume the internal crosslinks have been setup using the Insert bookmarks/crosslinks tools.įYI I am using Word 365 on Windows 10, and my system should be up to date as of May 2020. I don’t know exactly what settings are required, if any, to make it work on Windows, but this here recipe below seems to work. I don’t know it’s what my colleagues tell me. ![]() They are maintained if you ‘Save As’ PDF rather than print to PDF - but it is harder to get a high quality PDF.Īpparently Word on Mac does not do this saving at all. If you print a file to PDF, you get good quality and all but lose the internal crosslinks (eg that let a reader click on ‘Figure 2’ and be taken to Figure 2). ![]()
