The Excel file that is to be the basis for a pie chart must have the following format

Chart colors are normally controlled centrally on the web page. If you want to control the color of a certain bar, line or pie chart in detail, you can use line 2 in the Excel document to control the color of the data segment (eg the pie pie or the bar in the chart) in detail, if this is to deviate from the standard color. The color is specified in the html color code, e.g. #000000.
Line 3 of the excel document for graphs with axes is used to control the format of any lines. Values that can be entered here:
-
Solid
-
Dot
-
Dash
