Graph Printout cuts off right edge

P

PerksP

We have a bar chart that has printed without problems for a long time. One
user has been given a new machine and, for her only, it now cuts off the
right edge of the chart i.e. for a 31 day month it will cut off the 29th,
30th and 31st (approx 1.5cm). The data is neither displayed in print preview
nor when it is printed. It does not print on a seperate page, just vanishes.
The graph appears to stretch horizontally on her machine only so it is as if
the last few columns disappear under the margin.

She is using 2007. When I log into her machine remotely everything is fine.
When her colleage previews the same report on a different compuer everything
is fine. We have checked the following: Printer drivers are the same,
Service Pack is the same, Regional Settings are the same, Paper setting
defaults to A4.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this on one user's setup?
We are now at a loss for where to look.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have seen this when the chart control window is larger than the chart
and "Zoom" or "Stretch" is used to force the chart to fit the control
window.

Instead, change to "Clip" and fiddle with the native size of the chart to
match it to the control window's size.

Thank you so much. That did the job perfectly.

Just for my own knowledge, do you know why one user would be affected and
the others not?
