Export » Export selected chart or range as image (file)...

With this utility you can save your selected range or chart as a picture in GIF-, PNG-, JPG-, TIF or EMF-format.

You can use the following file formats:
  • GIF: Recommended when your selection or chart has only a few different colors. Perfect for publications on the internet.
  • JPG: Recommended when your selection of chart has a lot of different colors (as in a photo). Perfect for publications on the internet.
  • PNG: Better quality then JPG, but not yet supported by all software (email). Works in all recent internet browsers.
  • TIF: Best quality for photo quality color images. Usually also the largest file size. Not available in Excel 2003 and later, in that case, please use PNG instead.
  • EMF: A vector graphic in EMF (enhanced version of WMF) format can be scaled and fully edited in MS Office and other Windows applications.

    Your last used settings will be remembered.

    Remark:
    When you export a large range or a large chart a part of the exported image might be truncated or colors might be lost. This is not an ASAP Utilities bug, Excel has a limit on the size of the exported images. This limit depends on your Windows and Excel version (Microsoft KB185001: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/185001/en-us). Starting from Excel XP/2002 in combination with Windows XP much larger images can be produced.
    In some cases when your image gets truncated exporting your image as EMF file might be a solution. Another solution is to copy the chart or range and paste the result in your favorite image-editing program or MS Office application. You can do this by using by copying in a special way in Excel. In Excel 2000, 2002/XP and 2003 hold down the shift-key and then in the menu choose "Edit" and then "Copy Picture". Another option to place the selection as a picture on your clipboard is to use the tools in the ASAP Utilities export submenu.
