    Look in the Links panel and tell us what the Effective PPI of a typical blurred image is.

    Hi ​@Jack34190629r70b , By embedded do you mean you placed the image and then embedded it from the Links panel, or did you paste the image from the clipboard?

     

    If you select an embedded image, what does the Link Info panel show as its Effective PPI?

    I’m afraid you’re going to have to provide a lot more information.

    Where are you seeing this? InDesign? Exported file? PDF? What version of InDesign? What operating system? Can you post some screenshots?
