Just to confirm the therms used. > **DPI**: Dot’s per inch. The number of dots in a printed inch. The more > dot’s the higher the quality of the print (more sharpness and detail). > > **PPI**: Pixels per inch. Most commonly used to describe the pixel density > of a screen (computer monitor, smart phone, etc…) but can also refer > to the pixel density of a digital image. > > **Resolution**: Resolution is the measure of pixels in the display, > usually expressed in measurements of width x height. For example a > monitor that is 1920 x 1080 is 1920 pixels across and 1080 pixels > down. > > Higher resolution means more detail. Higher DPI means higher > resolution.

Now to your question: Insert a high resolution image in Power Point. Right Click and select Format Picture ->size. In this screen select the Resolution. ![resolution][1] If you now click on the Compress in PP menu bar you can compress the file if you want to reduce the DPI. ![compress][2] ![dpi][3] If you want to export Pictures from PP2011 that you already have, than the highest resolution is equal to the original as saved, means PP would have reduced its size/resolution. Not so if you are making new presentation and save the picture in it its original size/resolution.
