PowerPoint makes pictures blurry or unsharp, loses GIF animation Problem When you save presentations in PowerPoint 2007/2010/2011(Mac)/2013 then open them again in any version, the pictures in your presentation are blurry or less sharp than when you first inserted them. In some cases, your animated GIFs may lose their animation.

I have PowerPoint for Mac 2011, version 14.7.1. I’m trying to put a 5×7.jpg photo into a slide. No matter how I create the.jpg image (scanner, scanner then screen Shot, photo from iPhone) the image goes into the frame at full size, cutting off half the photo and no way to change the size.

The same thing happens in Word 2007/2010/2013 and the fix is the same. Solution PowerPoint 2007/2010/2013 have an option to automatically compress images when you save the presentation. That's a good thing. This option is turned on by default.

And that can be a bad thing. Programs should never, ever throw away a user's data without asking for permission first, but that's exactly what PowerPoint does.

Worse, when PowerPoint compresses an animated GIF, the animations are lost. And even worse, it's hard to find the dialog box where you can turn this 'feature' off. Are we having fun yet? Turning compression off applies only to the current presentation. You have to change the option for every presentation you work on. Is there a google or chrome app to convert a ntsc file to an mp4 file for i-movie mac free.

If you've already inserted any pictures, be sure to turn compression of BEFORE you save your presentation. Otherwise it'll be too late. Your pictures will be compressed when you save. Here's how: To turn compression off (but only for the current presentation) in PowerPoint 2007: • Choose File, Save As.

• In the Save As dialog box click Tools. • Choose Compress Pictures. • On the Compress Pictures dialog box, click Options. • On the Compression Settings dialog box that appears, remove the checks next to 'Automatically perform basic compression on save' and 'Delete cropped areas of pictures'. • Optionally remove the check next to 'Delete cropped areas of pictures'. • Click OK to dismiss the Compression Settings dialog box. • Click OK to dismiss the Compress Pictures dialog box.

• Back in the Save As dialog box, you can either go ahead and save or cancel. The compression options you just set will be preserved either way. To turn compression off (but only for the current presentation) in PowerPoint 2010 or later: • Choose File, Options • Click Advanced • Under 'Image Size and Quality' remove the check next to 'Discard editing data' and PUT a check next to 'Do not compress images in file'. Yes, it IS confusingly worded. A more thorough solution To really fix the problem, you'll need to edit the registry. The usual cautions apply: back up your PC first, be very careful, wash behind your ears. • Close Power Point • Open registry editor (Start /Run and type Regedit) • Go to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Microsoft Office 12.0 PowerPoint Options].

Change that '12.0' to '14.0' for PowerPoint 2010 or '15.0' for PowerPoint 2013 or '16.0' if you want to try it in PPT 2016/PPT365. • Create a new Dword value named AutomaticPictureCompressionDefault • Make sure that the value of the new Dword is 0 • Close registry editor Now, by default, PowerPoint does not compress pictures. If we want to enable compression, go back to the same registry key and change the value from 0 to 1. Or if you use Mac PowerPoint 2011 Instead of modifying the registry as above, you can modfy the Mac equivalent, the PowerPoint prefs file. • Make sure PowerPoint is not running. • Go to /Users/[myname]/Library/Preferences.

• Open the file com.microsoft.Powerpoint.plist in Property List Editor or other similar editor. • Select ROOT then click Add Item. • The name for the new item should be: 14 AutomaticPictureCompressionDefault • The type should be Number • The value should be 0 • Save the prefs file, start PowerPoint and test.

Now, by default, PowerPoint does not compress pictures. If we want to enable compression, go back to the same part of the plist file and change the value from 0 to 1.
