Mr. Wilton-Jones,
I'm using the Multi-Graph software in an application and I would like to
say thank you. Its nice.
And I have a question. I'm using Multigraph to produce barcharts and when
I print a bar chart in my application everything prints but the y and x
lines and the bars. I would like the bar chart to be printable. Do you
understand this?
Respectfully,
Craig Tussey

Craig,
By default, most browsers will remove background colours while printing,
and the graphs are made from blocks of background colour. In order to print,
you will need to tell your browser to print backgrounds:
* Opera: File - Print options - Print page background
* Mozilla/Firefox: File - Page setup - Print backgrounds
* Internet Explorer on Windows: Tools - Internet options - Advanced (tab) -
Print background colours and images
* Safari: File - Print - select 'Safari' in the third dropdown box - Print
backgrounds
* Internet Explorer on Mac: File - Print preview - Print background
* Konqueror: Location - Print - Expand - HTML Settings - untick 'Printer
friendly mode'
There is no way to automate this using CSS or script, it must be set using
the browser's preferences.
Hope this helps
