I’ve been searching for tutorials and haven’t come across anything that will point me in the right direction.American type designer Travis Kochel created this pi and symbols FontFont in 2012.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to make the data merge labels move with the data merge pie graph fields and am ready to bang my head off the wall. This isn’t a huge issue, but is there a way to output exactly as entered?Ģ) The graph requires labels (also using data merge) on the outside of the pie graph. When I preview, the graph seems to reorder ASC, so from the left I see 15,25,60. Example: the data contains 60,15,25 or ++. Yay! Now I’m stuck.ġ) The pie representation isn’t in the same order as entered. The pie graph flows accurately with the data. I’ve managed to create the pie graph and used the Knockout Group effect to make the center transparent. I have a new project that includes a pie graph and will require data merge. Your site has helped immensely! Thank you! Hello! I am very well versed in PS and AI. The closest you can get is to have wedges of 33%, 33%, and 34%. But this is a pretty small tradeoff in most cases for the awesomeness of automatic charts, courtesy of Chartwell. It means that you can’t have something like a pie chart perfectly divided into thirds. Ībout the only negative I’ve found is the limitation of working only with whole numbers. You can read the details of how to use Chartwell Web here. Each one also comes with webfonts and a javascript plug-in that makes the glyph substitutions for online use. The font also comes in versions for line charts:Įach Chartwell font is $20, or you can purchase the whole set for $50. The size of the circle in the center is determined by the letter, ranging from lowercase a to uppercase Z. You can also create ring-shaped charts by adding a letter at the end of the string of numbers. Here, I made an extruded version of the pie chart by converting a copy to outlines and reshaping the pieces into the sides of a cylinder with the Pen tool.
You can of course also convert Chartwell charts to outlines and then transform them to your heart’s content. Like here I changed the font size applied to the number “17.” You can select a whole chart and apply scaling or skewing if you like.Īnd there’s nothing stopping you from creating paragraph styles that use Nested Styles or GREP styles, for automated formatting.īut if you try to do anything tricky like mixing font sizes or formatting other than color within a chart, it breaks into pieces. If the values add up to more than 100, the piece that won’t fit becomes the start of a new graph.Ĭhartwell also contains regular letter and number glyphs, so you can quickly switch back and forth between numbers and charts without switching fonts, just by turning ligatures off and on.Īfter you’ve created a chart, you can modify the look of it. You can apply a different color to each number to distinguish the wedges. If you want a pie with multiple wedges, you enter a string of whole numbers separated by + signs. The pie pieces are arranged clockwise around the circle. If you look in the Story Editor, you can see your “33” and edit it.Ĭhange it to “66” to make a wedge approximately two-thirds of the whole pie. The number glyphs are instantly swapped out for a pie piece that accurately represents 33% of the pie. More after the jump! Continue reading below↓įree and Premium members see fewer ads!
