Is there a way to de-pixelate a picture place on a Word Doc that was created on Photoshop?

I have an image that was created on Photoshop and it looks sharp and great when I view it as a jpeg, png, or gif. But when I insert it onto a Word document it becomes sightly pixelated and blurred. When I print it, it is still pixelated. I'm trying to make invitations so this just kind of imaging issue? Specific how-tos or details would be appreciated.

    Try saving as a PDF (be sure to keep the original psd format)

    Then open it up and use the snapshot tool to select the image you want, then open up your word doc and hit paste. You can then adjust your margins in word to get it to fill the page. You may also have to enlarge the image by clicking the bottom right corner. (Hold shift to keep it in proportion). You can also add text on top of the image after you have it in word, by inserting text boxes.

    Hope this helps.

    Source(s): Another tip is try to get the image as close as possible to the size of the original "snapshot" when you paste into word. Increasing or decreasing size adds and removes pixels automatically at the computer's discretion. (graphic design student)
