ChartUtilities formats

[lobsterman]

hi all, i am exporting some graphs using chartutilities but am not satisfied with dumming it down to a bitmapped image. i am looking for a vectorgraphic which i can then further play with in a drawing program - svg, eps or PICT files would all make me happy. is there a solution already out there? otherwise, i would link in the quicktime for java library, and save as a PICT for my own use - would there be broader interest in such a solution?

JFreeChart supports SVG output using the Apache Batik library. I have also used the Freehep vector graphics library to create .swf files using Graphics2D, not with JFreechart, but it should work too.

thanks jleech, either of these two option would be great. do we want to extend chartutilities for developing an official solution for an .svg option alongside .jpg and .png? or should i just muddle something together for myself? thanks again

I can't speak for David but I suspect he doesn't want a dependency on either library. I haven't looked at ChartUtilities...
