The plots all have a big white margin left, right, top, bottom.

It looks nice on the screen but If I export a plot and implement it in a document it is disturbing.

Is there a way to export plots without a margin or with small margins automatically?

Hi,

What is your version of Origin?

If prior to 8.0, then open Tools->Options dialog and then on Page tab you can change the Margin Control drop-down to Border or Tight and this should remove extra white space. Note that if there is some small object far off the graph layer, Border or Tight would include that object thus including a lot of white space, so first one may need to delete any such object.

If version 8.0, the Export Graph dialog has options right in the dialog to set the "Export Settings" branch and then one could save the settings as a theme for future reuse.

If 8.0, also see this quick help item:

Thanks, but
"Margin Control drop-down to Border or Tigh" does not help for the right side of the graph. It makes the picture unsymmetric.

Hi,

Then you could try resizing/repositioning the layer within the page and export the entire page? Maybe you can send your graph to tech support and we could take a look?
