I am working on a macro to import images (.jpeg) from a folder into Excel. I need high quality documents to be generated from this document. Image Size and Quality settings: Do not compress images in file (not selected). Comparing two different approaches to import the file: Insert image into excel file (using Insert tab --> Pictures) Open the .jpeg file in paint copy and paste into the excel file Approach (2) results in a much larger size of image than approach (1). The quality of approach (2) is much better. The only problem is that I cannot create a macro to do that. Is there a way to have Excel stop compressing the picture when imported. I end up saving the file as a XPS file printer (using Zero Losses to the images). Approach (2) matches the source .jpeg image. Approach (1) is just terrible and unusable. Image size: 2-3 MB I do not have a macro put together yet. This is just a proof of concept if Excel would be able to meet my image quality requirements. Any help would be appreciated. I am using Excel 2013. I saw that Excel 2016 had an option of 'High Fidelity'. Tried to access 2016 on another computer but could not find that option. The max. output is 330 dpi. Excel MS Support 2016

<tbody style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;">
