Thanks. This is pretty convoluted but until I find a better way it will have to do. Ultimately I am trying to get it into a PDF, which Excel and OS X can do directly. If the chart is not sized correctly to start with, the copy must be resized. Fortunately you can do that in writer. Then it needs to be saved to a PDF (via the print panel), which works as expected. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
