Comment 2 for bug 171694

Originator: NO

Thanks for the extensive reply. I have taken your advice and signed up. I
am looking first at Gnumeric to see if this will fill my needs.
Specifically I would like to be able to specify my graph size to meet
publication requirements. This would mean being able to modify bar width in
bar graphs, font size, etc. Illustrator has this functionality in its
graphs function. See: http://www.creativepro.com/story/howto/24529.html for
a brief, though this is a bit extreme for what I am looking for. Hopefully
this makes sense. I've been using Excel to generate graphs and pasting them
into Inkscape or other image editing software, but I have many problems
with formating. It would be ideal to be able to format and edit all in one
program. I am mainly interested in simple vertical bar graphs where I can
change color, column width, graph size and font.
