[net.micro.mac] WARNING: Microsoft Chart bug with LaserWriter

kim@emory.UUCP (Kim Wallen {Psychology}) (09/11/85)

I just started using Microsoft Chart With the LaserWriter and 
discovered that it prints everything fine EXCEPT FOR THE DATA
POINTS.  The lines just come out as segments separated by blanks
where the plotting symbol should be.  I called Microsoft and was
told they are aware of the problem which is in their code.  They
say it has been corrected in EXCEL, but won't be corrected in
CHART until after EXCEL is out the door.  No idea when that might
be.  Seemed they would rather I upgrade to EXCEL  (surprise).

Just wanted to warn others who might be planning to use CHART for
nice graphs on the LaserWriter.
