Image size

For Windows XP, the number of pixels is exact. For Windows 98, 2000, and NT; you must subtract 7 pixels from the height value (hhhh).
Example:
This example would create the chart image at 800 by 600 pixels for Windows XP and files at 800 by 607 for Windows 98, 2000, and NT.
This setting allows you to select the size of a chart image up to but not exceeding the current screen resolution. For example, if you screen resolution is set at 800x600, you cannot set the chart image size to 1024x768.
