Is it possible to do this in Pages? I have managed to do this in Excel, and, at the moment, have no option but to copy it over from Excel. But, I prefer Pages' whole "look", and how the graphs blend with the style of my document. I am using Pages on iWork '05.

I don't think so, but have you tried grapher? Regarding the look, I'd create a simple line graph in iWork then try to duplicate that look in grapher.

Thanks for your reply, but, I have a series of data to graph logarithmically. Grapher only seems to allow equations to be input. Are there any other options?
 
Bummer. Maybe others will have better advice, but I've had a fair amount of luck using excel graphs in pages / keynote, after stealing the built-in design ideas then recreating them in excel.

If you find a more elegant solution, please post an update.

Grapher will allow you to plot points.

Equation -> New Point Set -> Import.

You can read .csv files that way, so you can export from excel if thats where your data is.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it out.
