Chart Generation for 'Microsoft Word', 'Microsoft Excel' and 'Microsoft PowerPoint' Documents

v0.5.0 · May 16, 2026 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Create native charts for 'Microsoft PowerPoint', 'Microsoft Excel' and 'Microsoft Word' documents. The resulting charts can then be edited and annotated in the host application. It provides functions to create charts and to modify their content and formatting. The chart's underlying data is automatically saved within the 'Word', 'Excel' or 'PowerPoint' file. It extends the 'officer' package, which does not provide native 'Microsoft' chart production.
