Printing gantt chart

Hi,
I have a gantt chart which i want to print out.
I have switched the paper source to landscape but i only get a portion of the chart printed. IE 1 page worth.
How do i get the output to page correctly so that the whole chart is printed over a series of pages??

How do i get the output to page correctly so that the whole chart is printed over a series of pages?? You'd have to size it correctly on your page, or you can look for some third-party filters for your print queue which allow you to scale and resize the input.
Trying to get complex layouts fitting well on a printed page can be a bit of a Dark Art....people have gone insane trying to achieve it ;)

Sheetal,
Did you ever find a reason as to why the bars were not printing? I'm experiencing the same problem with Apex 4.1.1. Only the first part prints. Here is the print tag:
<print mode="MultiPage" print_all_columns="true" columns_on_every_page="2" fit_timescale_to_end_of_page="false">
I've changed some of these settings to no avail.

Printing Gantt Chart issue

Hello,
Is there a way to see the print of Gantt Chart of our requirement in 2010 version.?
Emil

Hi Emil,
i think its simple what you ask..simply go to Print setup Setting and turnoff the legend and adjust the setting to your way ... before printing see Print Preview.

Print Gantt chart without wasting paper

I have few tasks but a long date range to plot- a short and wide gantt chart. Is there a way to wrap the gantt chart onto one page or set printing options so that it only plots say the top 4 inches of each page?

KYRep,
If all you want to show is the long tasks I think you best bet is to set the timescale to months, or years as appropriate so you will be able to see the start and finish together in the view. There is little benefit to having a fine timescale (e.g. days)
if all it will show is a looooooong Gantt bar.
And no, you can't "wrap" the Gantt Chart. You can however control the tasks that are printed by employing a filter. Set up a filter for just those long tasks you wan to show and then print with the filter applied.
Hope this helps.

Printing Gantt Charts

Good morning,
I have produced a complex project plan for my MD using the Tasks/Gantt Chart feature.
Whilst the MD has been provided with the URL to the Gantt chart, his preference is to have a printed copy.
However, after viewing the ribbon and browsing relative threads on this site, there does not appear to be a basic print function for 2010 Gantt charts?
Is this correct? If so, is there anything I can do (code etc.) to provide a print feature?
If coding is the only option, perhaps someone would be kind enough to share the specific code.
Kind regards,
David

Hi David,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to print the Gantt Charts of task list in the SharePoint 2010.
For a workaround, you can use a screen capture program (such as TechSmiths SnagIt) to take screen shots of the window in different places and then stitch them together to print out.

Print Gantt Chart: blank at the beggining of the chart

Hi Experts,
I am working with cProjects 4.5, trying to explore printing Gantt functionality.
1. If I try to print a whole project, at the beggining of the graphic I have a gap of approximately 1,5 months before the project starts. How can I print the graphic view only from the project start date?
2. If I had already completed phase 1, maybe printing that phase is irrelevant for me, and I want the graphic printing to start from phase 2. Can I choose a date from when I want to print the graphic?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Neil

Hi Experts,
There are some notes to be implemented about this topic for version PPM45. In PPM50 it is solved.

Turning Off Gantt Charts in MS Project For PDF Gen

hi
we have run into a problem when printing Gantt charts with PDF Gen. They can be extremely slow and on following up with Support they have confirmed that this is an issue with Distiller and there is no fix soon. So to get around the issue we tried disabling Gannt charts in MS Project by un-checking Bars and shapes in Gantt views in 3-D' (Tools > Options, View tab) in MS Project
Now we're finding LC does not always pick up the setting. What we have noticed is that sometimes when printing to PDF with the same file, on the same server via PDF Gen, Gantt charts will appear, and sometimes not. Occasionally, the MS Project file when printing Gantt charts will stall in the Adobe Printer Queue, LC will then start to get Stuck Threads in Weblogic, and basically become unstable.
Upon further investigation we saw that LC will use the WINPROJ.exe if it is running to do the conversion, or start a new WINPROJ.exe process if none is running. Sometimes while starting the process we get the Gantt chart setting picked up, and sometimes not, and there is no particular pattern.
We did a lot of digging with PROCMON to see if we could find if LC was picking up a Windows Registry entry for MS Project perhaps with a different user which did not have the Gannt chart turned off, but could not find one. Our conclusion was that sometimes LC has submitted the job before WINPROJ.exe is fully loaded and somehow the No Gantt charts option gets lost, though this is speculation based on observation of behaviour.
Anyone know what is going on?

Hi,
We will get this issue reproduced in-house and see if we can provide a patch to address this problem. Prima facie this does not appear to be a bug in the product; rather it appears that MS Project might be "forgetting" this setting in some cases, or a similar setting (inside the file that is being converted) might override the application-wide setting.
We will try to see if we can forcibly set this flag (through MS Project COM APIs) each time a MS Project file gets converted. If this works, we might be able to provide a patch.
Meanwhile, can you let me know exactly what version of MS Office (with the service pack details, if any) that you are using?

Printing the Gantt Chart

Hi,
Does anyone know how I can select some Legends and print them within the Gantt Chart, preferrably at the bottom. I stumbled unto the minutes of meeting of the "Project System Special Interest Group(PS-SIG)", in which this issue was raised to SAP in 2003, I could not find any other information on whether or not it was resolved. Does the PS-SIG still exist and how can I contact the moderator?

Check your page set up options when you do print preview. The last tab has some toggles where you can turn on/off printing the activity table and Gantt Chart.

Project 2013 - Gantt Chart Printing/PDF issues

Hello,
I will try and explain this strange issue best I can - I am having some issues with creating a PDF from Gantt Chart view. The main problem here is when printing to PDF it seems to modify my Gantt at will as soon as i hit print preview. When I return to the
Gantt I created it is very much the same as before; here are the issues:
When Linking tasks or summary tasks (marked as milestones) to the other summary tasks (also marked as milestones) with an FS task dependency: The Gantt in Project displays an arrow linking the finish of the predecessor to the start of the linked summary
task as would make sense. Once I hit print preview this arrow is now moved to point from the finish of the predecessor to the milestone located at the end of the linked summary task. A simple work around has been to not mark the linked summary task as a milestone
(the predecessor can be, this doesn't seemmatter); the print preview then matches the Gantt I created.
When hitting print preview the task list stays in tact but the Gantt Chart displays very unusual colors (Deadline arrows become vibrant green), components of the legend become invisible, and task bars become invisible as well. The problem is very sporadic
and comes and goes as it pleases.
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Chris

Gentlemen,
I am working with Project 2013 - I have the latest service pack installed.
I found another way to accomplish what i needed/wanted with the milestone - that is not my main issue here.
I have seen other forum posts with the same issue regarding Phantom Gantt bars and strange colour issues when creating a PDF. I can send you screen shots if you'd like of the results. The problem comes and goes and nobody seems to have any solution for it.
I just need my print preview to match what I have created in the project, and then for my PDF to match the print preview.
Regards,
Chris

Problem with Project 2007 gantt chart in Acrobat X

Good morning,
We are experiencing an issue with certain, rather large gantt charts in Project 2007 when converting them to PDF using Acrobat X. The issue is that the last portion of the chart is broken when converted to PDF. The chart will print properly when sent to a real printer, and it also renders correctly in the print preview. Here is an example of the issue:
As you can see, it has broken the last section of the chart and "stretched" the bars across the page. I couldn't find anything in the knowledge base that related to this issue, so any assistance would be apreciated.

Unfortunately it seems that this is still occuring, I guess nobody has ever come across this issue?

Gantt chart- How to change the color of time bars of different versions

Hi All,
My Client wants to see all changes in planning schedule. I made different versions of these changes but he also want to see all these changes in gantt chart and in different colors. I tried to change the color in planning board assistant but in this screen (CJ27/ CJ2B). we cannot view all versions together. And if I use CN41, there I cannot change the colors of time bars.
Secondly, we can change colors of times bars of basic dates, forecast dates and actual dates but there is no provision to change the colors of schedule bars of different project versions. Kindly reply-
1. How to see all project versions in CJ27 or How to customise bar chart in cn41 or if we change in SPRO, then how to change graphic profile in project info profile
2. How to change colors of different time bars of different versions.
3. How to mention these legends (meaning of each color in chart) at footer of gantt chart (in print outs)
Please Help.
Thanks & Regards
Dinesh Chauhan

Thanks,
actually I've created new project planning board profile where planning board assistant is customized but unable to use this profile in CN41. we can change PS info profile in CN41 and that;s why I thought that planning board profile may be assigned somewhere in PS info profile so that changes in planning board assistant will be applied in CN41 through PS info profile. Graphic profile is too complex to understand and not sure if it will help to get colored time bars of projct versions in gantt chart. Still not clear.
Secondly not able to see all versions (snap shots) in gantt chart with different colors of time bars.
I mean planning board screen can be customized but we cannt see different versions here which are possible in CN41, but we cannt customize the gantt chart (time bars) in CN41. Pls help.
Thx & Regards
Dinesh Chauhan

Date fixing of Gantt chart in cproject

Hi,
In cproject 4.0 Gantt chart , can we fix the time line appearance before and after the project schedule for various overviews like week, Month and year.? In current system the empty calender appears with huge period like 2 years incase of year overview, and more than 12 months in case of Month overview, more than 12 Weeks incase of Weeks(approximately).
Pls guide me to solve the issue. Right answers will be awarded.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ramesh

hi Ramesh,
There is not much felxibility in viewing the Gantt chart like normal non sap planning tools. if you select view - overview then you will be able to see your all project in your window, system will automatically select scale to show you entire project. As per my knowledge there is no such settiing in collabration project to see specific period Gantt chart. But if you print the gantt chart system will give you preview of only specific time in which project operation with respect to view you select.
Please let me know if you get more information about this.
Regards,
Pramod
plz award pts if its useful for you.
