Important Notes

Please ensure that the X-values in your input data are sorted in ascending or sequential order; otherwise, the lines may cross and look messy. This tool processes everything locally in your browser—no data is uploaded to our servers, ensuring your privacy. If you have trouble saving the downloaded image, try updating your browser or right-clicking the image and selecting "Save image as...".

Technical Notes & Pro Tips

Line charts are best suited for continuous data. If your X-axis represents categorical data, a bar chart is recommended. To display multiple data lines, you can input multiple data sets and distinguish them with different colors. Typical input example for a time series: 0,0 1,5 2,8 3,12. Adjusting the line thickness and point radius can also significantly improve readability.
