Gradbars – Compact data graphics for LaTeX tables and inline text

gradbars is a TikZ-based LaTeX package for drawing compact data graphics directly in table cells and inline text.

It provides ordinary and signed bars, stacked contributions, layered and dumbbell comparisons, floating intervals, lollipops, and sparklines. Features include shared scales, explicit missing-value handling, formatted labels, reference bands, target lines, error whiskers, conditional colors, CSV input, and reusable styles.

The package is tested with pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and LuaLaTeX. English and Chinese PDF manuals include examples with rendered output and source code. The Chinese manual uses XeLaTeX; the English manual can be compiled with pdfLaTeX.
