Why are my images blurry when I save my doc as a pdf?

I have Microsoft Word 2007. I am trying to save a document with a lot of images to a pdf but after I save it as a pdf...all my images are blurry? I have tried saving the images as a TIF (using Snagit) instead of a JPEG because I thought the problem was with the image. But perhaps it is with my Adobe Reader. I had a friend try fixing the pdf file from her computer and her images come out great while mine are still blurry.

Hello there,
Thanks for posting. Did you convert the file to PDF using Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com)? If not, you may want to give it a try. That being said, it sounds as though it could also be a settings issue in Adobe Reader; unfortunately, if that's the case, I won't be able to offer much assistance. Perhaps this thread in the Adobe Acrobat forum will be of help:

It may not be of specific help, but it may put you on the right path. Please let me know if you need additional help or information and I will do my best to elaborate.
Best regards,
Rebecca

  • Why are my gradients changing when I save as an .svg?

    Occasionally when I save to .svg in Illustrator CS5, my gradient changes colors from color-to-color, to color-to-white!
    This never happened in CS3. This also happens sometimes when I past as a smart object into a Photoshop document! GERRRRRRRR!!!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Cheyenne

    Hi Mylenium,
    you are completely correct. I think the issue was due to some strange document settings carried over from CS3. I ended up trashing those files and pasting into fresh CS5 documents, which corrected the issue. However I can't reproduce the issue now
    Thanks for your help though, and I appologise for the lack of documentation.
    Cheers,

  • Why are my photos blurry when I upload them into a collage (PSE)?

    This never happened with my old camera.....this is the first time I tried it using pics I had taken on my new Nikon.
    Any ideas how to upload clear pics?

    (not sure how this forum will notify me of any answers-so could those who answer-please e-mail me at:  [email protected]  Thanks.)

    The screenshot would have made a comparison possible if it showed the image both in the browser and in Photoshop.

    What Color Space are the images in?
    Do you embedd the ICC Profile when saving?

  • Why is the footer blurry when I convert my document to a PDF?

    When I am viewing my document in Pages (using the Club newsletter template) my logo in the footer looks fine.
    However, when I convert the document to a PDF and then view it as a PDF, the footer looks blurry, as though there are two of them.
    I've tried deleting and repasting and using a different format for the logo (e.g., jpg, png), and nothing seems to work.  Could it be a sizing issue?  (obviously I have to shrink my logo quite a bit to get it to fit into the footer....)
    Help appreciated!
    Thanks!

    In your version of Pages, I went into layout mode, selected the footer, and enlarged it enough to cram a 180 dpi 1024x768 image into a thumb-sized image. In the Wrap Inspector, I selected make background objects selectable, and enabled in background. I turned off Object causes wrap.
    I then chose Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master, and exported to PDF Best. At 400% enlargement in Preview, the image and footer looked normally sharp.
    Here is a screen grab of that PDF footer image at 400%.

  • Why do print margins change when I save or print as a pdf?

    I am printing from a church software program.  I need to save the report as a pdf so that it will print and fold on our new Xerox.  However when I print to pdf, the margins change and the text boxes slightly move and no longer line up with the preprinted forms I need to use.  Why does this happen?  Is there any way to change the margins or columns, once in pdf?

    Are you sure this is happening when you print to PDF?
    And not, later, when you print the PDF?
    What print scaling do you choose in Adobe Reader/Acrobat?

  • Why are all images blurry

    I don't know if it is okay to ask this here but... has anyone tried the generator coverflux2? When I import the images they are all blurry. Any idea why? Thanks.
    Perfectly fine to ask here but you really want to talk to the people who make the filters for questions about specific filters. There's a user forum for FxFactory somewhere.

  • Why are still photos blurry when I play movie?

    I am making a video slideshow using Adobe Premiere Elements 9. Most of the video is made up still photos. When I playback the video the still photos are blurry. What should I do to prevent this? Thanks!

    I read your article Bill, and that just seems like a massive amount of work for the average individual who wants to put together a movie. Is all of that really necessary?
    With PS, or PSE, and Scaling Actions, one can do batch processing of entire folders of images in moments. That linked article gives setup tips for doing batch scaling very easily, and the Action, plus Automate to Batch, will work on entire folders. My workstation will automatically process ~ 500 4000x3000 pixel images to 720x480 in about 2 mins.
    There are two benefits when Scaling stills in an image processing program, prior to Import into an NLE (Non Linear Editor) program:
    The processing overhead is greatly reduced
    The quality is greatly improved, as the Scaling algorithms in an image processing program, are much better *
    If one wants to let the NLE program do the processing, and one has many large images (especially at still camera resolutions), then they WILL need a very powerful computer.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    * PrPro, as of CS5, has improved the quality of Scaling, but the overhead issue still exists.

  • Why are my images noisy when editing in PSE10 from LR4?

    My workflow is as follows:
    raw file, retouched in LR4
    chose "edit in PSE10"
    PSD file, 8 bit, srgb, 300 res
    Thank you!

      If you are exporting as sRGB then you are viewing in two different workspaces as Lightroom uses ProPhoto RGB. Try exporting to Elements as ProPhoto RGB and make sure your settings in Elements is set to Optimize for computer screens (Edit >> Color Settings).
    It will also help if you zoom in to at least 25% when viewing in the Elements Editor.
     

  • Why are facebook images blurry

    whya re games app images blurry

    If you are using an app or game that is designed for just the iPhone/iPod Touch sized screen and you've pressed the '2x' button on the screen, then all that happens is that each pixel will effectively be doubled in size in both directions so will probably appear pixelated. It is up to the developer to either make them 'universal' so that they make use of the iPad's screen or to create a separate iPad version.

  • Why are some of my links not opening when I save a document as a pdf?  They are opening in word.

    The links are opening in microsoft word documents but when I save the document to a pdf some of the links are not opening.  The links are containing % or lots of extra numbers.  How can I prevent this from happening?

    What is your operating system?  Reader version?  How do you convert to PDF?
    You write that "some" of the links don't open; what's the difference with links that do open?

  • I am recording from my computer screen with an elgato game capture card.  Why is the video blurry when I import it to Premiere elements?

    I am recording my computer screen with an elgato game capture card.  When I play the unedited footage on my own computer, it is clear and crisp.  When I import the footage into premiere elements, it becomes blurry.  It becomes even blurrier when I save the edited video.  How do I keep the video clear?  How do I fix it?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Please check out John T. Smith's information.
    At this point, if you could tell us the file extension of the file involved, that would give us a start while you are
    gathering the rest of the details.
    You can easily get some information for us from Properties for your imported video that is blurry in the Editor.
    1. Click on Expert to get into the Expert workspace of Premiere Elements 13
    2. If you have not already, import your file into the program using Add Media/Files & Folder/Project Assets.
    3. Open Project Assets to see a thumbnail for the video that you just imported. Right click that thumbnail,
    and select and click on Properties from the menu that opens.
    4. Tell us what is listed there is Properties - it should look something like this one which is specific for one of my wmv files.
    Your information will be specific to the file that you right clicked in your Project Assets.
    From what you have written so far, yours should show
    Image Size 1920 x 1080
    Frame Rate either 59.94 or 60
    Also, please go to Edit Menu/Project Settings/General, and tell us what you see for
    Editing Mode
    Timebase
    Frame Size
    Pixel Aspect Ratio
    even if the fields look grayed out.
    Your project settings may be contributing your Edit area previewing problems.
    All of the above will keep us moving forward in the troubleshooting.
    Thanks.

  • Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

    In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

    ''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
    Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
    '''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
    * http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
    * clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
    There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
    * Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
    * You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
    * "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)
