- Hold the mouse over the chart. Two buttons appear in the top right corner of the chart’s card.
- Click Copy image, and paste the image into your document with Ctrl+V.
- If the chart needs to be scalable or editable, click Download SVG instead. The file is vector graphics, which PowerPoint and Illustrator, among others, can open.
The image is the whole card: heading, unit, chart and legend. The buttons themselves are not included.
If it does not work
Section titled “If it does not work”- Some browsers do not allow a page to copy images. The app says so, and you can download the chart as a file instead.
- Pie chart is drawn as an image and can only be downloaded as PNG. The button is therefore called Download PNG there.
The numbers behind the chart
Section titled “The numbers behind the chart”The panel to the right of the chart, or below the charts on a narrow screen, has a Data table with the numbers. Copy copies the table so it can be pasted into Excel, for example, and Export chart downloads an Excel file with the numbers and an image of the chart. On a wide screen the panel can be made wider by dragging the edge between chart and panel, and a double-click on the edge resets the width.
