Graphs from Excel into Adobe Illustrator
 

When I copy a a 3-d pie chart from Excel into Illustrator it has jagged
edges. How can I fix this? I used to copy as picture in the previous version
of Excel and this worked fine, I am now using the latest version of Excel.

Graphs from Excel into Adobe Illustrator
 

Excel 2007 has really disappointed me with its graphics rendering. I used to
be able to copy a chart as a picture and paste it into PowerPoint, then
ungroup the shapes and manipulate them as I pleased. In 2007, some items can
no longer be ungrouped beyond a certain point (chart gridlines for example
are now inseparable, taking the form of a transparent rectangle with lines),
and the antialiasing is built into the picture elements, and don't work if
the constituent shapes are resized.

The fact that you're using a 3D pie chart only makes it worse. It's an ugly
chart type, completely ineffective at the accurate display of information.
