Newbie question for Jfreechart.

Post by dbritton » Fri Jun 06, 2003 12:50 am

I need to implement barchart reports in a java applicaion.
I'm considering using JFreeChart. The demo graphics look
good. I will also require the printout of any charts created.

I saw a blurb about printing. How will is it supported?

There is no print support in the demos that I can see.

Newbie Q - should have been "How do I print a chart&quo

Put the chart in a ChartPanel. The ChartPanel object has a popup menu that will allow printing.

Good Luck

That's the easiest way to print a chart. But since JFreeChart can draw to any Graphics2D, you can also take over the printing process in your own code, and output one or multiple charts to specific areas on a page, mix them with other output, etc. etc.
