Hello,

 

 

 

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).

 

 

 

As for exporting, there are certain steps involved which you can find in the documentation at

 

http://fusioncharts.com/docs -> Exporting as Image/PDF

 

 

 

I hope this helps. :)

Hi,

FusionCharts allows you to export chart as image or PDF.

Could you please visit http://www.fusioncharts.com/Demos/ExportChart/ to see how you can export to PDF?

You can also download the code from : http://www.fusioncharts.com/Downloads/Demos/FusionCharts_ExportDemo.zip.

Please make sure of the following:

1. You have Flash Player 10 installed . * This is required

2. You are using the latest version of FusionCharts (i.e. v3.1.1 - please update from http://www.fusioncharts.com/PUC)

3. Also you would need to set the Flash Player global security settings on of you are running the application from a local file system:Please read http://www.fusioncharts.com/forum/Topic5009-47-1.aspx#bm8077

Hope this helps and you need not use any thried party tool to export only the chart as PDF.
