Convert Google Doc to PDF with high‑resolution images
To keep images sharp, start with adequate resolution and avoid upscaling inside Docs.
Right‑size sources
Prepare images at or near their display dimensions, ideally 150–300 DPI for print‑like clarity. Avoid stretching small images.
Choose formats wisely
Use PNG for UI and text‑heavy graphics; JPEG for photos. Keep dimensions reasonable to balance clarity and size.
Avoid layout shifts
Anchor images cleanly and use consistent widths for figures. Export directly to minimize recompression.
Proof across devices
Check on mobile and desktop. If needed, provide 2x assets for high‑density screens.
Repeatable workflow
Standardize your steps so every export yields predictable, crisp results.
