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.

    Hi Sheen,

    I think what everyone is after is this (as in the previous version) -

    File -> Compress Pictures, then under 'picture quality' we would like these options:

    90 ppi

    150 ppi

    220 ppi

    330 ppi

    High Definition

    Then we can just export as pdf. This way we have more control over the file size of the exported pdf.

    Thanks,

    Nick
