.NET XsPDF SDK / Tutorial for editing PDF / C# making ms stacked area chart diagram to PDF file

This C#.NET guide demonstrates how to generate the Microsoft Stacked Area Chart (both 2D and 3D Stacked Area Chart), and insert the MS Stacked Area Chart image to PDF document.

Area stacked chart can be customized in rotation, color, size and other properties. The following C# sample code shows how to create and insert Microsoft Stacked Area Chart to PDF document programmatically.
Please note, before developers using the chart creating code, the MS Chart Control should be referred to your .NET program:

  • System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting (for .NET WinForms project)
  • System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting (for ASP.NET application)

Generate and render MS 3D Stacked Area Chart to PDF in C# code.

All the steps are the same as above, only need change one line code chartArea.Area3DStyle.Enable3D = false; in the "CreateMSStackedAreaChart()" to the C# code below.

chartArea.Area3DStyle.Enable3D = true;
chartArea.Area3DStyle.Inclination = 15;
chartArea.Area3DStyle.IsRightAngleAxes = false;
chartArea.Area3DStyle.Perspective = 10;
chartArea.Area3DStyle.Rotation = 10;
chartArea.BackColor = Color.WhiteSmoke;
