I've been struggling with simply printing an HTML page that contains FusionCharts to a PDF, with no luck. Despite the fact that FusionCharts folks say this is possible, I've been unable to get it to work.
Even if I go to one of your pages:
A live demo is at http://www.fusioncharts.com/GalleryChart.asp?id=1
And print to PDF, or looking at the preview functionality, the graph just doesn't appear. Any idea why?

Hi,
If you're using Firefox, the chart wouldn't appear in preview. Also, for printing to PDF what print driver are you using?
Alternatively, you can also right click on chart and export as image.

I'm using a Mac, and tried Firefox and Safari. Still doesn't work... Of course I could always choose the print function from the context menu, but lets get real and say "that won't work", as I'm trying to automate the creation of a dashboard.
I've gone round and round on the boards, and have found another page where you guys told us about the only ratios that print. That's simply ludicrous. For me, having a pie chart that is less than 2 inches around is simply stupid. Too small for anybody to read.
You guys really have to figure out a solution for many of us who are trying to use your product to automate the creation of a dashboard. Simply providing a solution for websites is good, but a many number of us are trying to solve another problem.

| My company is considering purchasing fusioncharts. In order to do so, we must be able to save the chart to an image file programmatically, for use in a Qt application. Are there any command line tools, libraries, or other solutions that can allow us to write some C++ code to save charts as image files?

Hi,
You cannot do it in C++ as of now. However, in v3.0.6, we've exposed a JavaScript method that can be invoked at client side to automatically initiate the saving process once the chart has finished rendering.

Could you show me an example of how I can do this programmatically?
I won't be using any web server at all, as this is completely a desktop application.
I could perhaps programmatically open up IE; therefore, I need it to save to an image
file when the data is done loading. What do I need to put in my XML and HTML files
to accomplish this? I read the docs, but it mentioned .aspx or php, neither of which I can use.

Nevermind on that last post. Would be a pretty terrible idea to have to programmatically open up a user's browser, just to save
the image as a jpeg. Any suggestions for alternatives? Right now I build charts in MS Excel, export to JPEG, and display within
my desktop application.
