John, The usual problem with this symptom (in MS Word) is that you simply need to ensure that you are viewing the document in "Print Layout Mode" (under the View menu option). However, I would recommend you get (download) one of the abundant free PDF create software products that is around - just type pdf create into a search engine to find one - they effectively create a virtual printer which when selected (does not require the 'print-to-file' box to be ticked) creates a pdf file which is much more universally transferable than a rtf file.

I thought I would be able to print it to file and then send it as an attachment but print to file just produces a vertical list that is quite useless rather than a chart. Can it be done?

Amazing Print layout mode works Stewart. I'll have to try that free PDF.
