Compressed images in Excel files

Hi,
I have noticed that images are compressed when added to Excel files. That makes them look fuzzy.
Is there a way to turn off this feature? I can do it in Excel by going to File->Options-> Advanced and enabling the "Do not compress images in file" check box.

Thanks,
Nicoleta

Hello

I think this can happened when using JPG images as this is a destructive format. Use PNG or BMP images instead. It's not possible to turn of compression.

It does the same with bmp and png files, haven't tried with jpg.

Thanks,
