Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Paul, thank you very much! I would have been happy with either option, but the Office Add-in would be my preferred choice. Now I hope that the feature will be implemented in the near future and the graphics can be exported in the same quality as with Word. This is currently the biggest blocker th...

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Willy,

this setting is only relevant for saving Word documents. If you change it when saving as PDF, then down-scaling to 200 dpi still takes place.

Best regards,

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Willy, the reason is that Microsoft Word allows a maximum of 275 dpi for images when exporting PDF. Images with a higher dpi are down-sampled to 200 dpi. But we need at least 300 dpi for many documents. As a workaround, we could down-sample the images we use to 274 dpi in advance so that Word doe...

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Stefan, thank you for the explanation. So it's not possible to reach the same quality with the Microsoft Office Add-In. That means I have 2 options: Use the Office Add-In , which produces LOWER quality images , but does generate the bookmarks tree automatically . Use the Editor , which provides h...

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Stefan, you have to check the yellow warning icon and not the pizza image. There you can see, that Adobe uses the original image. When you zoom in, you will find NO artifacts. It has the same quality as the default Word export. You can already find the noise of the other image in the source file....

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Paul, thank you for the researching. But there must be a way to get access to the original image for your Office Add-In, because the Adobe Acrobat Add-In also produces no artifacts, like the default Word export. I attached the PDF produces by the Adobe Acrobat Add-In. It's bigger than the Word ex...

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Stefan, maybe my example wasn't that good. I inserted a photo into the word document and did the export with compression type Flate. The size of the PDF is now ~10 MB when saved with PDF-XChange Office Add-In and ~200 KB when saved with the default Word save as function. I couldn't upload the fil...

Re: Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

Hi Daniel,

I'm using build 9.2.358.0 for my tests.
Attached you will find a simple word document with just the image, the image itself and the saved PDF.

Best regards,
Stefan

Re: Word: Links in header and footer not working

Hi Willy, I have not much experience with the Office add-ins. We are currently testing the software. The settings under "Edit Settings > Links" are the same as yours. The link in the body text is correctly converted. Other links are working fine. I attached a test file and the result. Best...

Use PNG instead of converting to JPEG?

When using the MS Office Addin it seems to convert PNGs to JPEG. This causes JPEG artifacts. If we are using Adobe Acrobat or the Microsoft built in option to save the document as PDF, then there are no JPEG artifacts for the same image. It seems to keep the original image. Here is an example at zoo...

Word: Links in header and footer not working

If you add links in the header or footer in Microsoft Word, those are not rendered as links in the final PDF.

Tested with version 9.2.358.0

MS Office Addin - Save selection

We are currently testing PDF-XChange to replace Adobe Acrobat. There is one feature that we are missing. If I save a file as PDF in a Microsoft Office application, then I can go into options and select a page area, that I want to save: all current page selection page x to y Is this somehow possible ...
