Hello,
We have a PowerPoint template that includes a pie chart. It prints fine from
a PC, but when printed from a Mac, the circle gets very jaggy. This also
happens on other rounded elements. Any suggestions on why this happens, and
how to fix it?
Thanks

If the chart doesn't need to remain editable as a chart on the Mac, you can
ungroup it on the PC (repeatedly, until you can select the individual shapes
that make up the chart. Then select them all and group. That'll convert it to
PPT drawing objects rather than a metafile image of the chart. It should print
better.

If that doesn't work, let us know what version of PPT you use on both computers
and also what type of printer you have.
