I want to:

Desires:

Pie Chart showing YTD Sales by Product Line

Line Chart showing Quarterly Sales for Last 3 years running



Steps:

1.  Create an export file from fp

	I will create a different file, pre-summarized, for the different
kinds of graphs desired


2.  Have that file sftp to customer pc

3.  Call a graphics program to open that file and turn it into the desired
graphic presentation WITHOUT ANY Intervention by the user.


1 & 2 above are easy.  What's the right product to use for #3.  I want to be
able to totally control it from the Linux side...ie.  send it everything it
needs to know to produce the finished product the customer will see on his
pc monitor and perhaps print or save to .pdf for distribution.

I imagine I could do it with Excel and some sort of macro, but I would
prefer something that was perhaps faster for the single purpose of producing
charts & graphs.

Any input would be welcomed.

Regards,

Scott
