EXCEL OBJECTS IN POWERPOINT

P

PATRICKHOEY

When I resize an excel object placed in power point the type size sometimes, not always, resizes and becomes distorted. What good published sources are there on using PowerPoint in an advanced fashion, especially on inserting Excel objects?

Thanks,

Patrick,
If you resize the chart object as a PPT object it will resize fonts
even if you paste link like Steve suggested.

If you turn off AutoSize fonts in Excel (on the Axis font page, and
set the chartArea Line to none, you can activate the Excel chart in
PPT and resize the PlotArea without affectiving font size.

My preferred method though is to use custom sized charts in Excel so
that when pasted into PPT they will be sized at 100% or original size
and your fonts will always stay sized correctly, especially if you
turn off AutoSizing.

Good for charts, yup. I don't think it applies for ordinary data from the
worksheet though, does it?

Kinda hard to find the Plot Area of a worksheet
