Keynote

[WillNicholls]

When you're using keynote and you paste a high res photo into it, the picture looks not as sharp eg lower quality.

How come this happens? Even so it looks fine when presented on a projector?

At a guess, it's part of OS X memory management to aid speed of rendering and fluid feel of the presentation as you create it and check it over.
No real point loading a hi-rez photo into memory, since it's only there as representation rather than to be viewed intently or worked on.

Ok - makes sense!
