pasting charts from excel 2 powepoint, Cutting off edge
I am trying to paste a excel chart that is on its own
sheet in excel to powerpoint page. But it cuts the right side of the chart off. usually the legend is cut short. But if you copy a chart thats mixed on a page with other data & charts it works fine. ?????? #$%6& I hate computers! Doug Ramsey |

pasting charts from excel 2 powepoint, Cutting off edge
This is what I do to copy an excel spreadsheet to a powerpoint
presentation. First make sure the spreadsheet is in its own file: In Powerpoint: 1. Insert 2. Object 3. Bullet the Create File Section 4.Browse 5. Find the file you want to insert 6. OK to finish By doing this, you can modify as if you were in Excel. This option sizes it automatically to fit on a full page. Let me know how you make out. Debbie K. "Doug" wrote in message ...

Doug -
Believe it or not, the issue is related to the size of the copied object, in pixels, not bytes. For more information, refer to this page of the PowerPoint FAQ: http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/FAQ00068.htm - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services http://PeltierTech.com/Excel/Charts/ _______ Doug wrote: I am trying to paste a excel chart that is on its own sheet in excel to powerpoint page.

In Excel, use shift-Edit -- Copy picture
What you select next depends on whether the View is sized with window. If selecting "as shown on screen", choose bitmap.
