Horizon Names Do Not Display Properly in Printed Plot

If you are unable to view the name(s) of your horizon(s) in your printed seismic plot, this may be due to the length of the name. To fix this issue and print your seismic plot as expected, simply adjust the width of the time label in the plot so that there is enough room for the whole horizon name to display. Follow these steps:

  1. In the Seismic window, click to open the Print Seismic dialog box. CollapsedView image

  1. In the Source of Plot Setting section, click <...> next to the View or Edit Detailed Plot Settings field to open the Seismic Plot Display Options dialog box. CollapsedView image

  1. Open the Seismic Labels tab. CollapsedView image

  1. In the Time Label section, type a larger value for the Width field. You may need to come back to this step if you find you still need to increase the width of your time label to accommodate your horizon name(s). CollapsedView image

  1. Click <OK> to apply the changes and return to the Print Seismic dialog box.
  1. Click <Preview> to open the Print Layout dialog box and get a preview of your printed seismic plot.
  2. Check to make sure your horizon name(s) appear as you want them to. If they don't, return to step 4 and adjust your time label's width again. If they do, continue to the next step.
  3. Close the Print Layout dialog box.
  4. Click <Print>.
