10 Using Charts
You can convert data into attractive charts. This chapter
describes how to create and format charts.
Pages provides tools for creating visually appealing charts to present numerical data.
You can copy and paste your data from a document, or type it directly into the Chart
Data Editor to create and edit your charts right on the page. By default, the appearance
of charts is coordinated with the template you’re using, but you can adjust colors,
textures, shadows, labels, and more to emphasize various chart elements.
About Charts
You can display data in a chart to visually reveal trends or relationships that aren’t as
apparent when you view the data in rows and columns. You can choose from a variety
of chart types to present your data, including pie charts, line charts, bar charts, column
charts, area charts, and scatter charts. Most charts have two-dimensional and three-
dimensional versions.
To enter the data to show in a chart, you use the Chart Data Editor, as “Editing Chart
Data” on page 206 describes. If you change data in the Chart Data Editor, the chart
updates automatically.
