Publisher 2013 - Print and PDF Quality issue for embedded Excel.

Anonymous

When I print or export to a PDF, the embedded Excel documents in my Publisher 2013 document do not have crisp, clear text. However exactly the same document under Office 2010 they look and print fine. I have an example of a PDF created from the same Publisher document, one in 2010 (on the left), one in 2013 (on the right) which I have uploaded that clearly demonstrate the issue. Is this a known bug, or a font issue with Office 2013? I work at a University where we have an enterprise licence for Office 2013 so are only just considering to roll it out to staff currently, but if this is an issue we will have to wait for a fix.

    I have some Publisher file that have links to Excel objects.

    In Publisher 2013, these links to excel objects are seen in low quality and printing PDF /XPS is very bad.

    In Publisher 2010, these links to excel objects are seen in high quality and printing PDF /XPS is of high quality.

    I tried with two different computers.

    How to fix?

    Thanks.
