I use format like
ON GRAPH HOLD AS GRAPH5 FORMAT SVG
and reference in report as
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, COLOR=BLACK, SQUEEZE=ON,UNITS=IN,PAGESIZE='Letter',ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,$
TYPE=HEADING, COLOR=NAVY,STYLE=BOLD,JUSTIFY=CENTER,$
TYPE=TITLE, STYLE=BOLD, COLOR=BLUE, $
TYPE=HEADING, IMAGE=GRAPH5.SVG, position=(4 .05), SIZE= (6 8),$
ENDSTYLE

ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF CLOSE
END

above works great

Would like to use similar but can't seem to locate what JSCHART is saved in windows.

I think JSCHARTS are HTML5 charts(Only latest browsers can interpret) and can be used only in HTML files or BI Portals or Dashboards.

They cannot be embedded either in a PDF or Excel output of the report.


Thanks,

Not yet, but its coming soon.
I would suggest to open a case with Customer Support so they can link it to an existing New Feature request and you will get notified as soon as the feature is implemented.

Thank you.
Nick.

Hi All,

Does anyone know if the graph format "JSCHART" can be added to a PDF document yet? We have 8.201M in dev and I don't see if this is possible. Please advise. Thanks

It is possible as I have done it. I used a system command call to push JSON strings to phantomjs.exe executing phantomjs_rasterizer.js and pushing the output to PNG files. The resultant PNG is a screen capture of the JSCHART (or HTML5 Extensions) at a resolution set within the call.

Not something that I would place here because someone without the prerequisite abilities would try it and potentially not understand it, and therefore need lots of support! However, if you know it can be done, and you have the ability, it is something that most of the more experienced members could work out.

It took a while to figure it out but it can be done from Apps folder procedures. Not achieved Content folder procedure calls yet.

Having said all of that, I would suggest that you would be better adding your weight to the NFR for inclusion within the product.

BTW, this is not the same as something I recently posted (and have since removed for the reason above) because that used a JavaScript that you needed to obtain externally.
