Default Printing causing a scale change


Hi again

I've got all my graphs looking beautiful - on screen. But when I print
or preview, the axis labels are reformatted for some reason. Because I
need all my graphs to maintain their axis positions when printed, this
is a problem.

For example, I have a variable that varies between 12 and 18. The scale
in Excel works well: 10 to 20. Ideal, really. But printouts, without any
obvious provocation, change this scale to perhaps 9.5 to 19.5 - very
annoying. Any ideas why it does this and more importantly how to stop
it?

Cheers!

Hmm, further experimentation suggests this problem is being caused by
the scaling done by the print pre-processor. It seems that, in an
effort to squeeze the chart so the sheet will fit onto a printout 1
page wide, the charts' texts is being reformatted. Is there a way to
overrule this reformatting while scaling?
