Whenever I import (either by dragging or through keynote import) high resolution images (either jpg or png) at high resolution (say 1920x1280) into any keynote presentation (1280x1024) it somehow automatically gets compressed into a really ugly lowres image. This, in my case, makes it impossible to present designs properly. Is this a setting or am I importing them wrong?
I think this is your answer.
Images in JPEG format remain JPEG images; other formats are converted to TIFF. After an image has been downsampled, you can’t restore it to its original size by clicking Original Size in the Metrics inspector. To avoid downsampling and use images at their original size, turn off automatic downsampling inKeynote preferences.
In my case, I want the image to remain at its maximum resolution (I then use the Action: Move command to "pan" around inside the image, like a kind of Ken Burns effect).
I think I found a way to preserve the image's native resolution though (it's a bit of a faff tho)
This is the only way I can get an image into Keynote and preserve its native resolution. There has to be another way, right? It seems like a very basic function.
yes, I get the same thing! Any suggestions from anyone?
What dont you reduce the image size first at another program (Preview, Photoshop) and then put them to Keynote?
How to import images into keynote without losing quality?
