Thread: How do I prevent truncation of the Y-axis title?

When making charts using Excel, I've found that the Y-axis title is always
truncated if I use a truetype font, e.g. Ariel. For example, if I set the
label to "Total Count Rate", it only appears on the chart as "Total Count R".

Having just found this user community, I've noticed that there have been
numerous queries concerning this.

One solution I've discovered is to not use true type fonts. These do seem to
render correctly.

That said, I'll use the other solution suggested of using a text box and not
using the chart axes labels.
