RE: [hobbit] PDF Reports

[<wiskbroom (at) hotmail.com>]

Sorry, don't mean to be a pest, but I'd like to get my PDF's working :-)

Bottom line, I can generate PDF reports, but they do not contain charts.  

I am only able to see a pie chart for "24x7 Availability" with the word "Tests" in a box and the words "09-Mar-2010 availability : %" above the pie chart.

The pie chart is just a solid green circle, with a line from the center to the 12 o'clock position.

None of the other charts are displayed, I am getting "No graph" for these.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
