How it works

The AnyChart Stock component offers both end-user and developer, using the component, a very wide range of options for exporting charts in any format. A chart can be exported as a static image in the PNG or JPG format or as a PDF document with an embedded static image of the chart or a fully interactive functional chart, as user sees it on the page.

This sample shows how to configure export settings and obtain base64 encoded content of the exported file using getPDFBase64Encoded function.

You can learn more about image export in Chart Exporting section and learn about PNG export settings in Static PDF Export Settings article.
