NWE and Excel charts

Post by MacSailor »

When I import a chart from Excel, the chart seems be bitmapped in NWE and will even be printed as bitmapped, but in both Mellel and Word it will be both printed as sharp as possible and looks "nice" (not bitmapped) on the screen.

Why doesn’t NWE import and print the same chart as “sharp “ as Mellel and Word manage to do? I thought these problems were fixed in NWE 2.0.1? Will it be fixed in NWE 2.1? :?

It doesn't matter if I copy and paste the chart or if I export the chart as a pdf and then import it as a image to NWE, NWE still does not treat the chart as expected. :(

Hi Peter:

Hm. I'm not able to reproduce what you are experiencing. I do this:

1. Create a chart in Excel
2. Copy the chart into a new Nisus document.
3. Save the file as RTF.
4. Close and reopen the file.
5. Do a print preview.

The quality is perfect. What printer are you using? Perhaps there is an issue affecting how we draw to your print driver.
