I use symbol font in spread sheet (alpha, beta, ...), and then make a chart
based on them but in chart they don not appear as symbol font. They are read "a", "b". How can I solve to read greece alphabets in charts? -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan |

Hi,
The chart does not automatically pick up the font attributes from the cells. So you will have to apply the formatting yourself. Double click the axis and via the Font tab of the Format dialog set the Font to Symbol.

I'm not quite sure what is meant here since I did the experiment of changing a series column heading on the spread sheet to a set of Greek letters using Arial Unicode Hex Symbols. They appeared in the chart legend for an XY plot without problems. Is the problem that Symbol Font does not have Unicode symbols? James Silverton. |

I thought the only way to produce Greek letters is Symbol font, but it seasm
that you have produced them by "Arial Unicode Hex Symbols". Hum let me try it. -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan "James Silverton" wrote: Andy wrote on Mon, 19 Jun 2006 12:39:19 +0100: AP The chart does not automatically pick up the font AP attributes from the cells.

I don't have the font you mentioned. Also my next problem will be that I use
both English and Greece letteres in one cell (Dead Load (Alpha), Live Load (Betha) ). I think James solution ,ight be better. -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan "James Silverton" wrote: Andy wrote on Mon, 19 Jun 2006 12:39:19 +0100: AP The chart does not automatically pick up the font AP attributes from the cells.

It probably will be if you have mixed fonts in a single cell.

Dear Andy
Thaks. I have both English word and Greek letters. Changing the font, changes all of them. I don't have control over part of it. IS there any solution? -- Rasoul Khoshravan Azar Civil Engineer, Osaka, Japan "Andy Pope" wrote: Hi, The chart does not automatically pick up the font attributes from the cells.
