Even when PDF export quality is set to high - the images on the PPT are blurry when using PDF export.  The images are fine in the PPT itself.

Choose Help>Check for Updates and in that dialog, check Join the Office Insider program to get early access to new releases. Then choose Office Insider Slow for fairly well-tested code or Office Insider Fast for advanced features with more bugs. Don't choose the latter on a computer you use to get work done.

    PowerPoint export to PDF has tons of formatting issues.

    We will be setting up a primary thread there, so please navigate and subscribe to that thread so that you will receive updates on the issue.

    We have tested this and can see the difference in quality between version 16.13.1 and 16.14. We will continue to investigate the issue and provide updates.

    Regards,
