Frequently Asked Questions

Is this chart maker completely free?
Yes — 100% free, forever. No account, no watermarks, no limits on exports. All processing happens in your browser.
Can I create a chart with multiple datasets?
Yes. Click "+ Add Dataset" to add as many series as you need. Each dataset gets its own color, label, and data values, making it ideal for comparison charts.
How do I use the CSV paste feature?
Click the "Paste CSV" tab. Paste your spreadsheet data (comma or tab separated). The first row is treated as headers (dataset names) and the first column as X-axis labels. Hit "Parse CSV" to auto-fill all datasets.
What is the best chart type for comparing categories?
Bar charts are ideal for comparing discrete categories. For temporal trends, use Line or Area charts. For part-to-whole relationships, use Pie or Doughnut charts. For multi-variable comparison, try Radar charts.
Can I export charts for presentations and reports?
Absolutely. Export as PNG or JPEG to insert into PowerPoint, Google Slides, Word, or any document editor. Export as PDF for print-ready reports. SVG is best when you need infinitely scalable vector graphics.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. ChartForge is fully responsive and works on all modern smartphones and tablets.
