SUMMARY
In Microsoft Excel, when you print a two-dimensional (2-D) pie chart that has only one data point, to a postscript printer, the printout contains only a vertical line marking the radius. This problem does not occur with any of the three-dimensional (3-D) pie charts or two-dimensional pie charts with more than one data point.

WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, copy the chart as a picture and paste it to the worksheet as a bitmap.
