Remove FusionCharts and FusionExport watermark from your exported files

The exported chart using FusionExport consists of two types of watermark:

  1. FusionCharts Trial Mark
  2. FusionExport Trial Mark

Water Mark

Note: The exported chart consists of watermarks only if you are not using the licensed version of FusionExport and FusionCharts.

Remove FusionCharts trial mark

To remove the FusionCharts trial mark, you have to purchase the license of FusionCharts and tell FusionExport that you have the license. To do that, you have to override the default package version of FusionCharts in FusionExport with your licensed version by passing -L option of FusionExport. Here are the steps:

  1. Copy all the files in the js folder of your licensed distribution.
  2. Place all the files present inside the js folder in a folder named fusioncharts beside your fusionexport file.

To run licensed FusionExport with licensed FusionCharts run:

./fusionexport -L fusioncharts/

After removing the watermarks, the chart looks like:

No Water Mark

Remove trial mark in Docker

To remove the FusionExport watermark, all you have to do is run the licensed Docker package of FusionExport, which you have purchased. However, to remove FusionCharts watermark, get the location path where you have the licensed FusionCharts folder. Go to fusionexport-docker package that you downloaded from our website. Open fusionexport-docker/docker-composer.yml and add an entry in the volume section:

fusionexport:
    build:
      context: ./service
    volumes:
      - ${DATA_SAVE_PATH}/exported_images:/app/exported_images
      - /Downloads/fusioncharts-suite/js:/app/fusioncharts
    ports:
      - "${SERVICE_PORT}:1337"

As you can see above, in our local system, licensed FusionCharts library is present in /Downloads/fusioncharts-suite/js. In your case, use the respective location. The same folder is mounted in /app/fusioncharts inside the Docker container. You can choose any location you want.

Now open the config.json file inside the fusionexport-docker/service/config.json and change the libraryDirectoryPath value to /app/fusioncharts.

{
  "server": {
    "host": "0.0.0.0",
    "port": 1337,
    "logEnabled": true,
    "allowSave": true,
    "savePath": "exported_images",
    "workerCount": 2,
    "libraryDirectoryPath": "/app/fusioncharts"
  }
}

That is it. Now restart Docker by running the following command, and you are done.

docker-compose build && docker-compose up

Remove trial mark in Windows Service

To remove the FusionExport watermark, all you have to do is run the licensed Windows Service of FusionExport, which you have purchased and run it. To remove FusionCharts watermark, follow these steps:

  1. Stop FusionExport Windows Service and open windows registry.
  2. Go to the location Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FusionCharts Technologies LLP\FusionExport Windows Service.
  3. Set the licensed version of FusionCharts JS files in the FCLibraryPath key.
