GXT Chart conversion to Base64String
Hi,
I am a newbie - I am trying to figure a way to convert the Chart that I create on the GWT front end to be passed as a Base64String that I can then embed as an image in a pdf.
Are there examples or some quick tips on how to do it? Thanks in advance.

GXT implements charts to be visible and interactive in all possible browsers, not to easily turn the chart into an image - we currently use VML in IE6/7/8, and SVG for most other browsers, and tentatively plan on Canvas support for better performance. Of these, only Canvas would have built-in support to turn the visible chart into an image.
Instead, since the server already needs to do the work of making the PDF file, why not look into a server chart framework that is already capable of creating image files.
One last thought - base64 is slightly ambiguous. The wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64#...ns_and_history points out fourteen differennt variations of base6 depending on line length, char 62/63 translation, checksum, and separator.
