Excel Number Formats¶
The following integer values correspond to built-in Excel number formats.
While they cannot be used directly in python-pptx, this reference can be used to
determine the format strings that can be substituted in
ChartData.add_series() to specify a numeric display format for series
values.
Further information on string number format codes (such as ‘#,##0’) can be found on this web page.
