Hi,
I am having excel charts with 10 data rows, each 10.000 points long, which I need to use in Word.
When copying the charts as wmf in Word it gets extremely slow thus I would like to find a way to export an "compressed" wmf from excel. I know there is no classical comression for wmf, but the resolution of my data rows when zooming the wmf in Word is much lower than the density of points in the chart. Thus some compression seems to be done, at least for representation. And still there is obiously a lot of unnecessary data left, that slows Word down, which I want to get rid of.
In other words I am looking for an scalable vector graphic form of an excel chart that only contains the data rows to the extend necessary for repesentation.
The functions "copy as image" or "save as webpage" or chart.export in VBA all return images that don't have a necessary resolution. If you know a way to increase this resoltion, it would also be helpful.
thanks a lot,
thomas
