Chart formatting

K

Hello,

I have a vertical bar chart (ie. a 'column' chart) with staff names along
the bottom (x) axis and their hours up the vertical (y) axis. The staff
names are rotated by 90 degrees so they read 'upwards'. There are a large
number of staff and to make the chart readable I split the staff into 2
equal groups and have a separate chart for each. The charts are identical in
format (or at least I thought they were) and differ only in the data they
display.

On the 2nd chart, long staff names are sometimes not printed properly, the
name is truncated. eg. 'Jeremiah Millhouse' prints as 'Jeremiah'. Shorter
names are not affected, and the problem seems to occur only on the 2nd
chart, the 1st chart works OK.

I notice that the names display OK on the screen, but become truncated as
soon as I switch to print preview. As far as I can tell (from the format
box) the font sizes are the same on charts 1 & 2, though I notice that the
font size changes if I resize the chart on the screen. I'm using a true-type
font.

Can anyone suggest what the difference might be between charts 1 & 2 ?

Thanks

KK
