Thanks for the suggestions. I get the impression she'll have to go forward with Visio for now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Under too tight a dealine for a learning curve right now. I have two Excel charts I need to recreate at high resolution for publication. One workbook, one sheet two small data sets, too fairly simple graphs, though with specific requirements, (B&W, high resolution, will be printed small "small" unspecified, but say a fifth to a third of a book page.) Then again. free or cheap, high resolution, and user friendly is asking for a lot. The "pick two" rule. I guess the next step is: find someone with decent graphing software and beg them to redo my two Excel charts for me.

I have a stubborn friend who prints out the Excel charts on a high quality printer, then scans them back in at the resolution required by the publisher. It is completely absurd, I know, but he's been getting away with it for years.

It is absurd that the entire Office Suite combined (including Publisher) won't do something that Harvard Graphics for DOS would do routinely in the freakin 80s.

This is probably a dumbass question, but there is a reason I am a systems analyst not at admin: I have gtalk on my itouch. It keeps telling me login failed and I know I am providing the right gmail username and password (I can get in through a browser on it.) WTH am I doing wrong? It used to work, but I think there have been upgrades since. (This is why I put off software updates, damnit.)

sarameg: Have you tried both (for example) "sarameg" and "sarameg@gmail.com" as usernames?

Yes. Poking around online, I see a LOT of issues like this. I think it is just a bad ap.

sarameg,
