    When I create a document in Word, and convert it to PDF using PrimoPDF (or any converter for that matter) the quality of the images are terrible although they are fine in word and are of good quality to be englarged

    Any ideas why or what I can do

    Happened on both Office XP and 2007 (currently using)

    :eek:

    Copy and pasting images makes them crap in PrimoPDF, try saving the images and importing, this will fix some of the quality.

    Try with Adobe Acrobat or try using a print to PDF, it might work.

    What file format are the images in? I've found that Word + most pdf makers don't work well with imported/inserted jpegs or pdfs. I had a project the other day like this. When I finally re-saved the images as .bmp files, the pdf I made from Word looked perfect. Maybe try the .bmp format, if you haven't already.

    Good luck!

    Can you not convert your Word document directly to PDF using Office 2007? I seem to remember that option on the beta version.

    as one of the other user said here, Use AI or indesign or photoshop. lots of time when you copy and paste it uses to quality (specially if the original file is in PNG or gif)
