Resized images in Word docx that are displayed using Viewfile macro are in low quality and unreadable
Steps to reproduce
- Create a new page
- Attach resized.docx
- Insert a viewfile macro for Word and choose this attached file to be displayed
- Save the page
The image in resized.docx is not in original size. It is resized in Word and hence, the image is shown blurred. Try to compare with original.docx which contains unresized image and the result is expected (clear image).
The screenshot screenshot.png
shows the difference between original (top) and resized (bottom) output of view file macro.
Workaround
Either use an original/unresized image or convert the docx to doc file
