Formatting Text and Numbers

All the text on a chart appears inside its own text box. To format text or numbers on a chart, follow these steps:

  1. Click the text you want to change, or select it from the Chart Objects drop-down list on the Chart toolbar. To change the text for the entire chart, select Chart Area.

  2. Click the Format Object button on the Chart toolbar. The dialog box that appears differs slightly from object to object, but no matter.

  3. Click the Font tab. The Font options enable you to change the font, style, size, and color of the text (see Figure 23.3).
