From: trip_to_tokyo on 6 May 2010 07:15 Sean, this is from Ed Ferrero MVP:- A couple of things to try; Check your printer driver. It may seem strange, but the printer you use can have an effect on how charts are rendered. See this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/111249 Remove graphic elements embedded in the chart object. There are things like textboxes, activeX controls and the like. I remember seeing a suggestion to place the chart on its own sheet (change Location). Don't know if this would work for you. Use a macro to resize the charts every time you open the worksheet. This is just a workaround if other things do not work. Sample code would go something like this; Private Sub Workbook_Open() Dim oCht As ChartObjectFor Each oCht In ActiveSheet.ChartObjects oCht.Width = 400 oCht.Height = 300 Next End Sub Since most of us cannot reproduce the problem, it would be good if you could post back here any solution you find.
