What setting, for Adobe Save as PDF, to match much higher resolution of Pictures that are exported from PowerPoint?

Pictures in PDF created by Adobe Save as PDF are at much lower resolution compared to PDF exported from PowerPoint.

Since Adobe Save As PDF is the preferred method of my work environment, is it possible to change its settings to match resolution of pictures created by PowerPoint Export to PDF?

Please find screenshot comparring resolutions in above PDFs using Adobe Tool Export Images to PNG

Check this setting in Advanced Settings:

You should use create Adobe PDF, as this uses the Adobe engine. If you use “Create PDF Document”, you use the Microsoft engine, and you need to find the equivalent settings.

Yes, the Acrobat tab is its own tab on the Ribbon. If it does not show it needs to be enabled. Go to Preferences first, then create the Adobe PDF.
