Labels in Excel Chart May Be Clipped When Copied to PowerPoint PSS ID Number: Q71172 Article last modified on 11-29-1993 PSS database name: W_PowerPt

Summary:
Text labels on an Excel chart that is pasted or embedded into PowerPoint may appear clipped. This occurs because PowerPoint and Excel use different font metric information. PowerPoint is passed certain bounding box dimensions from Excel, which it re-creates in PowerPoint. Once the bounding box is established, the text is placed into the region formed. Due to the difference in font metrics, some of the text may be clipped by the bounding box.
To minimize this problem, make certain that you are configured for the same printer driver in both PowerPoint and Excel. This will reduce the tendency for this clipping to occur. In addition, you can pad your text labels in Excel with some additional blank spaces.
Additional reference words: truncate truncated cut off cut-off fonts squished small embed
