The print quality of a rendered 3D chart looks very poor. Whats wrong?
The real-time rendering capability of PowerPlugs: Charts is designed for on-screen electronic display. The rendering that rather than print output. So, there are some limitations on the output quality of a rendered 3D chart to print format. With this in mind, here are some suggestions to facilitate the print output of Charts — In PowerPoint under Tools>Options>Print Tab, make sure that “Print insert objects at printer resolutions” is checked. Another option you might consider would be save your rendered charts in a raster image format to see if the print output of the raster image looks better. PowerPoint itself renders and displays images at 72dpi. So, you can use the stand alone version of PowerPlugs: Charts to build a chart save it as an image file (bmp, jpeg, etc.) at a higher dpi, and thereafter, insert the image file in your PowerPoint slide(s) or Word document(s) for print output.
