What are the limitations of creating charts using the PHPExcel library in terms of page layout and formatting?

When creating charts using the PHPExcel library, one limitation is that the library does not provide extensive support for advanced page layout and formatting options for charts. To overcome this limitation, you can manually adjust the chart layout and formatting properties using the PHPExcel library functions. 

// Adjust chart layout and formatting properties
$chart = new PHPExcel_Chart(
    'chart1', // Name of the chart
    null, // Title
    null, // Legend
    null, // Data
    true, // Plot visible cells only
    'line', // Chart type
    null // Plot group
);

// Set chart layout and formatting properties
$chart->setTopLeftPosition('A1');
$chart->setBottomRightPosition('H15');

// Add the chart to the worksheet
$worksheet->addChart($chart);
