Default Text Truncated on Vertical Chart Axis Label

Hi,


I'm posting on behalf of a friend who is having trouble with Excel
charts. She's using Excel 2003, and the vertical axis label always
gets trimmed off at the right hand edge of the label. For example the
label "Light Years" will become trimmed to "Light Yea" when displayed
and when printed from Excel.


I tried various solutions like attempting to resize the label,
changing font size and weight etc., but I resolved to changing the
label to "Light Years a", such that the "a" bit got trimmed and
left the label looking as desired! Obviously this has problems when my
friend takes her work to a different machine, as the label displays as
expected!


Any help would be much appreciated

Default Text Truncated on Vertical Chart Axis Label

seems to only occur on pc screens with 1.6 aspect ratio and only with true
type fonts. Does your friend find this:? See earlier post "Text is missing
