Options
Section titled “Options”Right-clicking on the print icon brings up the options panel. From here you can select to print the workbook or the active chart on the screen.
*Note: If the workbook option is selected, a window will open allowing you to select which charts to print from the workbook.*

The program will try to fit the chart the best it can to size and orientation selected. However, this may change the aspect ratio of the chart (particularly if portrait orientation is used). Click the Maintain Chart Aspect box to keep the same proportion as that of the screen.
