Gantt chart export?

D

David

I am useing Project 2002 to give me a basic series of timelines for the installations of multiple, yet seperate pieces of equipment. I need to be able to transmit the graphic image of the Gantt chart to coworkers in Europe that do not have Project, in a form they can work with for basic understanding of my schedualing. I have published it as a PDF file but they complain things are too small with the detail I am using in each timeline. I looked at exporting to webpage, but I can not keep the graphic nature of the Gantt

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Many thank

David

Teach the folks in Europe how to use the Zoom in/out capability in Adobe
reader to increase the size. You can also give them a graphic (jpeg or
gif) by using the camera icon. Frankly, though, unless they have a
sophisticicated graphics viewing program for jpeg or gif files, the PDF
with Adobe Reader gives them greater flexibility and ability to display
in the size *they* want to view.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Hello David,

If you like the format and look of the webpage but would
like to add the graphic image of the Gantt, you can.
Zoom out of the Gantt chart using View --> Zoom -->
Entire project.
Use the select all of the tasks in the task sheet.
Click the Copy picture button on the Standard toolbar and
capture the screen as a GIF image.
Save the file as a Web Page. Use the existing export
map "Export to HTML using the Standard template".
In the Export Wizard - Map Options page, click the option
for "Include Image file in HTML page".
Browse for the Gif.
Finish and now the Web page includes the Gantt chart
image.

Hope this helps.
