Creation of Professional Charts for use on a Website

[aris1970]

Hello all,

I am operating a business portal and I am very interested in finding the right software for easy creating professional charts.

I would like to use our custom colors, our logo and to achieve a custom look and feel of the charts. I tried to search for this kind of software on the web but it seems I was not very lucky.

Please find attached a sample chart from another business website - http://www.emarketer.com - that could be our design foretype.

I look forward to hearing the suggestions and comments from all the friends of this forum soon.

I don't think you're going to find a one click solution. I would build them in a graphics program such as Illustrator or Photoshop or hire someone to do it for you.

I just found Harvard Graphics software www.harvardgraphics.com and the sales team told me that ChartXL - one of their products - could be the solution.

Is there any friend on this forum that has been using this software and could send me his/her feedback.

I look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions!

Regards,
Aris

In the past I have always made my charts by hand in photoshop... However your suppose to be able to make very nice charts in Excel. So if you know how to use that I would suggest starting there.

But no I have not heard of this program but if that's what it does... it may be worth a look if the price is right.
