Export to excel or word document?

Recommended Posts

Is there a way, for a graphical chart to be exported in Excel format? For instance, my clients really need a way to download these charts and export to their excel spreadsheet or word document for their presentation. Is it possible?

 

 

 

I'm using Fusionchart v3 on ColdFusion.

FusionCharts is rendered on the client side using Adobe Flash Player. Essentially, FusionCharts is a set of .swf files, which when requested by the users, downloads on his/her machine, reads the XML data and then plots the chart.

Owing to limitation of Flash Player itself, which doesnt allow saving the end output of the chart as image, FusionCharts too is bounded by the same limitations. As such, you cannot directly save the charts as bitmap/image/PDF.

Indirect ways of saving chart image are:

- You can third party tools like www.flashcapture.com to take one-click screenshots of the generated charts and then use it.

- You can use PDF Print drivers like www.pdf995.com to save the chart as PDF (by capturing it from Print Stream of your Operating System).

Starting FusionCharts v3.0.5, you can now export your charts as images. You may read more on it at:

A live demo is at http://www.fusioncharts.com/GalleryChart.asp?id=1 - just right click on the chart and select "Save as Image".
