If the class diagram is good in Word output and not clear in PDF output, it is an issue. Can you save generated Word output as PDF file and confirm if the diagram is clear in PDF file?

I see the image (1.png) shown clearly in both Word and PDF generated by RPE. Can you confirm if the unclear image is only when EMF is used and not when jpg is used? If so, please provide the EMF file (replace "__JPG__" with "__EMF__" in ClassDiagram path and request the path in browser).
As a workaround, you can use a macro to save Word output as PDF.
Sub Save_to_PDFA()
   ActiveDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat OutputFileName:= _
       Replace(ActiveDocument.FullName, ".doc", ".pdf") , _
       ExportFormat:=wdExportFormatPDF, OpenAfterExport:=False, OptimizeFor:= _
       wdExportOptimizeForPrint, Range:=wdExportAllDocument, Item:= _
       wdExportDocumentContent, IncludeDocProps:=False, KeepIRM:=True, _
       CreateBookmarks:=wdExportCreateNoBookmarks, DocStructureTags:=True, _
       BitmapMissingFonts:=True, UseISO19005_1:=True
End Sub

in the image 1 and 2 (1 is word output and 2 is PDF output image) it is unclear..I have the observation when class diagram is large the only the issue comes else the output is clear.The actual JPG output is always unclear in both output.When i replace JPG with EMF i am getting better quality only in Word.

I have attached the template too.
