Default Data labels not printing


I have a big bar chart that just barely fits on my page. Excel keeps
dropping every other data label. I have it setup so everything fits
niceley on the spreadsheet.

Sometimes the print preview shows all labels visible but every other
label does not print. Sometimes it prints fine on my machine but
someone else prints the same file on another machine and half the
labels are dropped.

Is this some automatic feature I can turn off?

Do you mean data labels, or category axis labels? If you don't specify the
category label spacing, Excel feels free to display the ones it wants.
Double click on the axis, and on the Scale tab, change the value in the
middle box (categories between axis labels or some such) to 1.

Worked like a charm. Banged my head against the wall for a while on that
one.
