Inserted raster image prints distorted
I am inserting a raster image in Excel 2003 on PC. It looks fine on screen
but it prints elongated (by 5% or so it seems). I tried JPEG, PNG, TIFF (all in RGB) with same results. Page Setup ensures adequate margin. To complicate things, 2 printers distort the image more and a 3rd printer, less. It could be a postscript print error but on 3 printers? I also ised different images with different files with same result. It seems that Excel is struggling to compensate for something. Thinking that it might help, I went to Format Picture/Picture tab/Compress button: under Change Resolution checked No Change; under Options unchecked Compress Pictures but after applying and okaying the old settings reinstate themselves - another mistery. Thanks! |

Don't worry, the Excel Drawing Shapes don't maintain their aspect ratio
either. little vinegar cup wrote: I am inserting a raster image in Excel 2003 on PC. It looks fine on screen but it prints elongated (by 5% or so it seems).
