Quality of copied graph

Questions on using, creating, or understanding data in Fund Manager graphs.

Hi,

Is there any way to format the graph in order to have better quality when I copy the graph into word or excel?

Please see two images attached. The quality gets a little better when I do a screenshot of the graph.

Thanks!

Hi stegra,

How are you copying this into Word? Are you using the Advisor version? If so, use "Edit / Copy to Clipboard" and then paste it into Word. It helps if you size the window in Fund Manager to the size you want in your Word document first. Then, once you paste it, right mouse click on it, and choose "Format Picture..." and set the "Size" to 100% keeping the aspect ratio the same. See this example:

Hello Mark,
I'm having similar problems with printing graphs using the personal version. If, for istance, i am viewing a graph and then click on file / print / preview, the quality is very rough, like the bottom image below from stegra. The quality on the screen is fine so somehow it gets lost when printing. Is there a way, with the personal version, to print (paper or pdf) high resolution versions of the graphs?
Thanks and regards
Pierre

Hi Pierre,

I believe stegra was having issues with the sizing of copying/pasting from the Advisor version. That is different than printing and print preview. Printing is done at the full resolution of your printer. The Print Preview is showing a scaled version of your printer output on the screen. Depending on the size of your window and screen/printer resolution the display on the screen may not look as good. If you actually print to your printer (or PDF file), does it look high resolution?
Thanks,
Mark
