[mso] Re: Word doc to pdf - images not clear (OT)

Mervyn,

This is not strictly speaking an Office question (since Adobe is not part of
MS Office).  A PDF file is, essentially, a format which shows how the
document would look when printed on a Postscript printer.  You will probably
need to tweak the resolution (dots per inch) that the PDF file is created
at.  It's possible that you are creating the PDF document at a low
resolution - maybe even 75 dpi (suitable for screen/web viewing only). Check
the settings available in the process of converting it from a Word document
to a PDF file.
