Word 2007 resizes image after pasting
Hi,
i am trying to paste an image in Word 2007. The problem is that Word only allows up to a fixed length image to be properly pasted. My image is 650px length, 400 height. If i paste it, the image gets resized, quality is TERRIBLE. I can select "Format picture"->"Size"->"Scale" to scale the image back to 100%, but quality is already gone. How to paste my iamge without word resizing it? Thanks |

First off, make sure Word's image compression is switched off. Allowing Word to compress your image won't help it's quality one iota.
As for the 100% size, that doesn't mean reall much - it all depends on how many dpi the image says that 100% applies to. FWIW, an image of that size probably won't look much good any larger than 3.25*2in, which only allows for a 200dpi resolution. For quality work, 300dpi+ is typically called for.

Hi,
but if i paste the cropped version of the same image then everything looks great (e.g. 150*150px) Word automatically resizes images that are more than 600px wide. I am now using word 2010, i was able to preserve the quality there. You have to select the image, click "format" from top menu and click "reset picture" |

The normal behaviour in Word is for pasted/inserted images to be re-scaled to fit the space available. If you want to constrain an image's dimensions, paste it into a table cell that has a fixed height and width.
