I'm just guessing but are the images being resized in Word to fit their container? If so then the images would become blurred wince you can not add pixels to fill the container space. Make the container the same size as the original image so that the image does not have to stretch.

You are fast 😉

Sorry, there is no resized. It's an original Logo with the right size.

Thank you BobTheFisherman

I don't have word but see if any of these tips work…

In Microsoft Word

Right-click on the image and select Format Picture.
On the Size tab, verify that Scale is set to 100%.

Word 2010 Only: Click File > Options, then select the Advanced tab and make sure that the "Do not compress images in file" option is CHECKED. This option is UNCHECKED by default.
