Thank you for the feedback.



I suspect WORD is using a lossy algorithmic shrink to change the Dimension
of Pixels to say 320x240. What is confusing is that the dialog says Print
200 dpi or Screen 96 dpi which does not change the Dimension of Pixels but
changes how many pixels of the Dimension of Pixels are printed per inch.
However, the physical size of the printed object and screen display do not
change after the compression. Therefore, by specifying 200 dpi (lower
density), WORD would need to make the Dimension of Pixels smaller in order
to have the same physical size.



It would be beneficial for Microsoft to clarify what they are doing.
