save AnnotatedLine as image file

[alan]

We're using the Visualization API in a GWT application
and are generating some flash-based AnnotatedLine charts.

Now our users want to be able to print the charts. Silly users ;-0

So it there a way to generate an image (PNG/JPG,etc) from the contents
of a flash chart? We generate the DataTable on the fly from an SQL
backend
so I'm thinking it;s theoretically possible to re-used the same data
and generate
a image file on the backend but I'm not sure which API would provide
this?

Any ideas?

I am afraid I am not aware of any way to print Flash based charts. Maybe a solution that is not specific to charts is available online.

To print SVG based charts, please take a look at this thread.

Hope this helps,

Thanks Visgoth, I'll have a look at that.

I also came across code.google.com/p/flash-print-fix project
which consists of a JavaScript and and ActionScript 3 library.
Not sure yet if this could be integrated into my GWT app.
