Moving Excel Charts into Word Documents: font sizes change
May I please ask you to help me?
When I copy an Excel chart and paste it into a Word document, all font sizes change. On the original, the font of the labels on the y-axis is larger than that for the x-axis, and yet once I paste the chart into Word, the font of the labels on the x-axis is much larger than the font of the labels on the y-axis. I have objects in the title of my chart [Brownstone equation - "alpha squared"]. In the orginal [excel chart] these objects are of the same size as the letters in the chart title. However, once I paste the chart into Word, these objects appear to be much larger than the rest of the chart title. Can this be fixed? Thank you. |

Try Edit--Paste Special options when you paste, Sam. Likely, it's pasting
as a Word table into Word right now. Try pasting it as a worksheet object, or as a picture. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Sam" wrote in message news May I please ask you to help me?

Anne - Thanks a Million!!!!!!!!!!!!
That worked!! I was going to print the Excel charts and scan them and then paste the images back into word. I have over 30 charts, so this would have been very time consuming.

Well, Sam. If you're doing this a lot, you might want to consider a macro
for it: http://www.vbaexpress.com/kb/getarticle.php?kb_id=133 And... you're welcome! ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Sam" wrote in message ...

You can also copy a chart as a picture in Excel. I have some information
about working with other applications he http://peltiertech.com/Excel/XL_PPT.html Most of the examples use PowerPoint as that other app, but there are a couple Word examples, and the PowerPoint ones can be easily adapted.
