I have a user who is trying to paste charts from Excel to
PowerPoint, however, although it may sound very simple it
isn't.

What we are trying to do is create bar charts, and instead
of using the colors that the graph comes as a default
with, use pictures.

We are able to do create this charts with no problem at
all, however, the problem starts once we are trying to
paste this charts to a PowerPoint slide.

The PowerPoint slide, sometimes will transfer the color,
sometimes will not. Sometimes will have pixelated pictures
sometimes the pasting creates a really small chart on
PowerPoint that at the time we enlarge it (stretch it)
loses the proportions of the chart and becomes unreadable.

Anyone knows anything about this?

Thanks

Jit,

I guess first you should check that you have the latest video drivers for
your machine.

Then, how are you pasting the charts. Can you paste special them as a
picture, say as wmf or emf, or something similar?

I have pasted those charts as everything you may think of.
Paste Special using every single option available and also
just pasting them normally. I am a little confused because
one of the computers pastes the "pretty pictures" and the
other one doesn't. Is there anything in the settings that
may make that happen?

The version of PPT is the same on both systems.

Two different versions of PPT on the different machines?
