I have a chart created in Excel that has alpha-numeric
text vertically for labeling the x-axis. This chart has
been copied into a Word document and in viewing appearance
as intended, but in printing text coming out as solid
rectangles. When printing this chart from Excel, all is
well and appears as intended. Am hoping this is a problem
similarly encountered by others and easily corrected.

Think I may have solved this problem on my own . . . one
of the problems may have been in the way the chart is
pasted from Excel to Word. As I didn't originate either
the report or the chart, decided to try what I'd do and
that was using paste special as excel object rather than
straight copy/paste. Paste special allowed correct
printing of x-axis text.

Anyway, thanks!
