Legacy Charting - printing wall charts

Updated over 3 months ago

1. Please make sure your plotter is set by clicking on the round "File" button (looks like a circle with a pedigree chart) in the very upper left corner of Legacy Charting and then select Print Setup. The behavior of your plotter and the available options for paper size, orientation and layout are determined by its print driver; not by Legacy. In some instances users may need to download an updated print driver from the manufacturer's web site.
​

2. Instead of printing directly from Legacy Charting, save your chart as a PDF file by clicking on Publish, then selecting Export to File and choosing PDF. A PDF file is used at places like Fed-Ex/Kinkos, Office Depot, Staples or a local printer to print large wall charts on their plotters.
​

3. The PDF page width limit is 200 inches. If your chart is too big, click on Appearance and experiment with the settings for Themes, Box Items and Sizing Options. The right combination of options can reduce the width of your chart significantly.
