Example: The following example creates a date time column series and adds values to it.

// Create a Page and add it to the document
Page page = new Page();
document.getPages().add(page);
// Create a chart
Chart chart = new Chart(0, 0, 400, 200);
// Get the default plot area from the chart

// Create header titles and add it to the chart
Title title1 = new Title("Website Visitors");

chart.getHeaderTitles().add(title2);
// Create positions

// Add date time column series to the plot area

columnSeries1.getXAxis().setLabelFormat("MMM");
// Add the chart to the page
page.getElements().add(chart);
// Save the PDF
document.draw("[PhysicalPath]/MyDocument.pdf" );
