My thesis is written in word and I have figures all with 600dpi or higher. On Word the figures look very clear but when converted to PDF (In word I select File -> Save As -> PDF) figures get blurred. I have tried several things but could not find a solution. As it was suggested in some online posts I have set in Word-> Options-> Advance -> Image size and Quality as 'Do not compress images in file'. I tried 'print to pdf' as well. Then as there were online suggestions to use PrimoPDF tried using that as well. But nothing worked. Any help to convert to PDF without having blurred images will be helpful as the submission deadline is near.

Based on my experience, you may install a free Foxit PDF Reader.
Go to File > print > choose "High Quality Print" and browse and set the correct folder to save the PDF files > Edit > Set "Off" for all Compression, besides set options as following image shown > Click OK to save print configuration file.
Go back to Print, use Foxit Reader PDF Printer to convert a document to PDF file.
