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.

    Wait. Did I not already mention that this is fixed in the upcoming 16.15 that you can get now by joining Insider Fast?

    Why, yes I did!

    Hi Jim,

    Do you know where I can find Office 2016 for Mac version 16.13.1 in French as I have the same issue since yesterday with an auto-update :/ 

    The French Team was not able to help me - I found your answer which I hope will help me.

    I assume the link provide on that page you mentionned (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-office-for-mac) for the version of May 24, 2018  16.13.1 (18052304) is in English only?

    Could you help me and show me where to find the French link?

    Many thanks in advance!

    Jim - me again - in fact it is perfect - it works also in French and the issue seems to be not anymore here :)

    Thank you so much for your feedback - so useful !!!

    Big hug from Paris ^^
