Random Missing Axis Labels - Pivot Charts
I have found that if there are too many points that I have problems
displaying the labels at various levels. Unfortunately, I don't have your
data to test. You can try smaller font. Sometimes choosing Format Axis, Axis
Options, Specify interval unit set to 1 works better than Automatic.

I am a reasonably experienced excel user, who has been using pivot
tables/charts in Office 2003 since, well, 2003. I analyze hundreds of
thousands of lines of data, and find the pivot table feature very powerful.
I recently switched to Office 2007. It's strange, but I'm getting used to it.
Several engineers in my office, including me, are having a show-stopping
problem with pivot charts. When we have multiple data fields in the X-axis,
the field lables disappear randomly.
Below are links to jpegs showing examples of the problem.
In the image labeled 'minimal data', all the X-axis lables are visible.
In the image 'less data', I have added (unfiltered) additional data points,
adding more information to the primary X-axis field. As you can see from the
picture, some of the 2nd level X-axis lables have dissapeared.
In the image 'all data', I have added all the available data points. As a
result, even more of the 2nd level X-axis lables have dissapeard, and even
one of the 3rd level axis lables is gone.
I have tried every option I can to get them back, including, but not limited
to: change font sizes, changing printer driver, changing interval settings,
tic marks, alignment settings, even page size. The defect even remains when
I print.
I believe this is a bug. Anyone seen it before, and have a fix?
I'm running XP Prof V2002 with SP2, and Office Pro+ 2007 12.0.4518.1014
