Chart export - high resolution, no gif or jpeg
Hi newsgroups,
I have read several posts about exporting charts to a suitable format, however all I have found so far are the Export function and JWalk Chart Tools, which both just enable me to save a chart as a rather low- level picture (gif, jpeg, png etc.) However, I do need the charts in reasonable resolution, not just at 96dpi, but rather at something like 600dpi. Is there any change to get them as a high resolution picture? Thanks and best regards, Chris |

Chart export - high resolution, no gif or jpeg
Hi Bernard,
I like to make the chart large and copy it to a graphics program such as PaintShopPro or PhotoShop Then save in format required after resizing to suitable pixel count Thanks for the hint, but that doesn't really help me. As soon as I use the clipboard, I end up with a screen resolution copy of the chart, and resizing it doesn't change it (at least not in Excel 2003). Surely there must be a way to receive the chart as a vector graphics or something similarly high-resolutional? Regards, Chris |

Chart export - high resolution, no gif or jpeg
I did a project one time with a guy who had Adobe Illustrator. I would
create my Excel charts and print it to a PDF file. When I looked at the PDFs they looked so-so, still just the screen resolution, but he received them and claimed they were great. He sent me the glossy brochures he had printed up, and they did look nice. Turns out a PDF stores a vector graphic internally in postscript, but displays a low resolution bitmap on screen. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services, Inc. http://PeltierTech.com/WordPress/ _______ wrote in message ...
