question on pdf colors for a chart

Post by BillH » 09 Jul 2013 04:07

I looked around for something about this, but couldn't find anything.  I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction or give me some help.

I created an Ancestor and Descendants chart.  A portion of it looks like this.

When I print this to a PDF, the same portion looks like this.  Everything is in black.

Does anyone know how I can get the PDF to have the same coloring for the text as the chart has in FH?  Is it even possible?

Thanks!

Just a suggestion check that your printer driver is not set to print black only for pdf's.

In the menu option 'File>Page Setup' check you don't have Print in Black and White Ticked.

Thanks for the suggestions. It turned out to be the setting in the diagram options. I swear I looked at that tab several times before posting my message and just didn't see it.

Thanks!

Bill
