What is the best way to copy graphs into powerpoint?

RE: Graphs

Hello Sarah

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

It depends on what you want to be able to do with the chart/chart data once it's been put into PowerPoint.

I would use copy and paste; when you paste you should see you are given Paste Options when you click on the small clipboard item that appears next to the chart.

If you need to be able to edit the chart data after you have pasted, then Paste as a Microsoft Excel object (which is the default usually). Otherwise choose to paste as a picture as this will reduce the overall size of the presentation (useful if it contains loads of charts and other graphics, and you need to email the presentation).

I hope this helps.

Kind regards
Amanda

Excel tip:

Wrapping Text in a Cell in an Excel 2010 Workbook

When you have a lot of text you want to put in a particular cell but you can't decrease the font size to fit because the text will then become ineligible, then manually wrap the text in a cell by simply pressing ALT+ENTER.
