Compressed Charts Produced When Printing Multiple Copies PSS ID Number: Q57553 Article last modified on 06-23-1993 PSS database name: W_eXceL

2.20

OS/2

Summary:

If multiple copies of the same chart are printed from Excel for OS/2 with the PostScript driver, every chart after the first will be reduced in size. This problem occurs only if you change the number of copies in the File Print dialog.

To work around this problem, keep the number of copies in the File Print dialog at 1 and change the number of uncollated copies in the PostScript driver Job Properties dialog.

To change the number of uncollated copies in Excel for OS/2, do the following:


 * 1) Choose File Printer Setup in Excel.
 * 2) Select the printer using the PostScript driver from the Printer scroll box.
 * 3) Choose the Setup button in the File Printer Setup dialog.
 * 4) Choose the Options button in the PostScript Job Properties dialog.
 * 5) Enter the number of copies in the Uncollated Copies box.
 * 6) Choose the OK button.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Excel for OS/2 Version 2.20. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
