The patterns on Excel pie charts often get lost when we PDF them.

Hi --

Yes they do. I don't know if it is a bug in Acrobat or if it is Office, but most patterns don't translate properly, which makes me think it is likely Office.

I don't have a fix for you, other than to suggest you use different unpatterned colors.
