Where is printing support for charts? Also, I can't figure out how to use superscripts and subscripts in labels and legend. Thanks in advance for your help.

I answered my superscript/subscript question by setting baseline and font size in the Markup.

Printing and saving to an image still have issues in version 16.1. You can easily see the printing issue using the Print command in the provided StockSample chart. I had the same issues in version 15.

I added the PrintDC() and SaveAsImage() methods to the ChartBrowser sample. For both methods, any chart element using fonts does not scale correctly to the output device context. SaveAsImage works correctly only if the image pixel dimensions are exactly the same as the view. PrintDC never works correctly because the page dimensions are never the same as the view. The printed font is always tiny and that causes all the legends and text markers to be wrong. For example, if the page or image dimensions are 4 times larger than the view, then the fonts are 1/4 as large as they should be and all layout involving text is messed up accordingly.

Both BCG and GigaByte chart components print and export to a file correctly. So I assume there must be some initialization or something I am not doing for Chart Pro. Is there a fix?

We really need chart printing fixed as well. Hasn't worked properly for a while now. Ugh.
