Hello,
The inserted PDF file clarity using Insert --> Object --> Create from file
functionality is not good when compared to original PDF file. The text is not
sharp and small fonts are not readable(blurred). Is there any way to improve
the image quality to a readable level as in original? Other optons of
coverting the PDF to word and inserting or copying and pasting the PDF file
content works fine. But I need to make it look good with insert-object-from
file functionality. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Chandra

Use Adobe Pro, File --> Save As --> File Type --> png. Then from Word (I'm
refering to Word 2007) --> Insert picture to insert your png's into your Word
document.

If you insert an object like a PDF file then it will shrink to the current
margins and it is almost certainly the shrinkage that causes the lack of
clarity. If you change the wrap option to something other than in-line and
set the size to 100% the clarity should improve.

Hello Graham,
Thanks. Can you let me know where exactly is this setting for wrap option?
Is this the 'size' tab in the 'format object' setting box after selecting the
inserted pdf object?
By default I am having
1. Absolute selected in the Height section. Second radio button 'relative'
is display only.
2. Absolute selected in the Width section. Second radio button 'relative'
is display only.
3. Rotation is 'zero degrees' and is only a display field
4. Following settings in the Scale section:
i) Height = 93%
ii) Width = 100%
iii) check box for 'Lock Aspect Ratio' is selected
iv) check box for 'Relative to original picture size' is selected
5. Following values are displayed in the last section 'original size'
i) Height = 8.25"
ii) Width = 6.38"

Thanks for your update.

The wrap options are on the layout tab of the format object dialog.
There is something rather odd going on if you have a height of 93% and a
width of 100% with the lock aspect ratio check box selected. Both height and
width should be 100%.
