PDF Export

The StockChart component provides a built-in PDF export functionality.

For a runnable example, refer to the demo on exporting the StockChart to PDF.

To enable the PDF export:

1. Define the PDF export settings of the chart through the Pdf() configuration. You can specify the author, creator, date, name of the exported file, paper size, and more.

       @(Html.Kendo().StockChart<StockDataPoint>()
       .Name("stockChart")
       .Pdf(pdf => pdf
           .FileName("Dashboard.pdf")
           .Date(DateTime.Now)
           .PaperSize("A4")
           .Margin(m => m.Top(2).Bottom(1).Left(2).Right(2))
       )
       ... // Additional configuration.
       )
   

2. Create an external button that will trigger the export and handle its click event. Within the event handler, get a reference to the StockChart and call the exportPDF() or saveAsPDF() client-side method.

       @(Html.Kendo().Button()
       .Name("exportBtn")
       .Content("Export to PDF")
       .Events(ev => ev.Click("onClick")))
   
       <script>
           function onClick() {
               $("#stockChart").getKendoStockChart().exportPDF();
           }
       </script>
