SmartSheet Gantt to PowerPoint
If you need to insert a SmartSheet generated Gantt chart in to PowerPoint, the following procedure is useful:
- Output the Gantt to a PDF at A3 size or above, and try to get it all on one sheet.
- Issue the following command to generate a PNG of the chart:
convert -density 300 -trim INPUT.pdf OUTPUT.png
The -density 300
option means it is generated at a high enough resolution for most purposes and the -trim
option gets rid of all the white-space around the chart.
And voila, a nice crisp high-res PNG that will look good on your slide.
