Oracle BI Publisher Chart Generator
Introduction

This page generates the XML to define Pie Charts in the Oracle BI Publisher Desktop Template Builder. The Chart Wizard is fine a starting point for creating charts but lacks many features required to make basic customisations. There is almost no decent documentation available for tweaking the XML and is something of a black art.

This XML generator is intended to give you a quick and easy way of creating customised Pie Charts.

  • Create your chart in Word using the Chart Wizard.
  • Right click the chart and select "Format Picture"
  • Select the "Web" tab
  • Paste the XML into the "Alternative text" box
Note: Using the Chart Wizard replaces your customised XML so becareful you don't lose any important customisations.

If you need some quick test data you can use the Example RTF Template file and Example Data XML file.
