FAQ

How do I make a bar chart image? Use a bar chart URL: /chart?t=bar&d=&labels=. ChartBytes renders it server-side to a PNG or SVG.

Can I make a horizontal bar chart? Yes — use t=hbar for horizontal bars and t=stacked for stacked bars.

Is the bar chart PNG watermarked? No. The free tier renders clean, unwatermarked bar charts with no account.
