	I have a chart I inserted in my crystal report 8, report from Excel. Looks good in Crystal. When I export the report to PDF, the charts are very small and not readable. I have tried locking the size and location of the objection and nothing seems to help. Any suggestions are welcomed!

	Hi When you insert a chart from excel to your crystal reports then it will become an OLE Object in your report. I don't think you can change the format of this object when you export to PDF. Insted of importing or inserting a chart from excel, try to create chart in Crytal itself to get better export quality
	Thanks, Sastry

	That is what I ended up doing. It took 3 charts to do what I was able to do with one chart in Excel. I was hoping to just have the one chart. Now I have one that shows the totals of data in a stacked column for a 45 day period. Then one shows the average of that same data for the 45 day period, lastly one that shows the average of the last 7 days of the same data. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question!
