Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.0724
Operating System: Windows 10

Hey all,
I am having a funny issue with Origin, but may just be a problem with my windows 10 settings.
Usually when I make figures using an Origin graph I simply right-click and copy page, then paste into my software of choice. Recently however, with my new computer, when I paste the page from Origin into the next software, the relevant graph is only ~30-40% of the whole pasted image, the rest just being empty space. It seems to happen with whatever software I choose to paste it into (Coreldraw, powerpoint, etc)
.
Since I don't think I explained that well, I made an image for help.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thank you!

Thanks for your help!

Thanks Yuki. Unfortunately that did not fix the problem, and there is still quite a bit of blank space in the pasted image. I can overcome the problem by exporting the graph as an eps or other file type, then importing it into the next software, but still frustrating that I cannot simply copy and paste

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

Firstly, I want to confirm that you had set @ems =0 in System Variable dialog, and then relaunched Origin as administrator to copy the graph page.

If you had tried that way and the problem wasn't gone, I think you can upgrade to our latest version Origin 2017 since 8.0 is very old.

You can download a free demo here:

This problem happens if you change the display scaling without signing out. Usually Sign Out and re-Sign In resolves the problem.

I have exactly the same issue with OriginPor 8 SR4 v 8.0951 since I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.
I tried the changes in the settings proposed in this and the other linked thread but without success.

Has anyone found a solution for this issue in the meantime?
