Diagram size

When I try to copy a diagram as a bitmap, I get the error message that the size is too big. Changing to enhanced metafile, results in an image in Photoshop that is totally un-readable!
Any ideas?

If you paste the meta file to word does it work then?

How big is the diagram?

Hi Jane
The diagram is 23 A4 horizontal pages across & 2 deep. The metafile in Word, the whole diagram fits across the width of one sheet of A4 - rather small!!!
However, it does go into Excel.
I'm just trying to get it into a form that some of the other people looking at the same families can see.
Let them use up their ink!

I have found using PDF995 or eDocprinter to create PDF files works well, and if you set the page size to A0, or a custom size you can get the whole chart on the paper.
