Of course the possibility will exist. It is possible to have an
horizontal or vertical fit (with no change in the width/height ratio) or
strectch the image to the size of the graph. May be also an user chosen
scale factor.
We must also certainly support what Excel do. I made some test and
obtained a strange result with a partially transparent result: the
background turned black.
