No, you're right, it was obvious. I've just been deep into client-side code and wasn't thinking.

However, adding the WaitForJS did not change it to pdf, the output in the canvas is still just an image.

I added that to the script block and get the following error:

Uncaught SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

<canvas id='myChart' style="margin-top:30px"></canvas>
<script>
    var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
    var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
        type: 'line',
        data: {
            labels: ['M', 'T', 'W', 'T', 'F', 'S', 'S'],
            datasets: [{
                label: 'apples',
                data: [12, 19, 3, 17, 6, 3, 7],
                backgroundColor: "rgba(153,255,51,0.4)"
            }, {
                label: 'oranges',
                data: [2, 29, 5, 5, 2, 3, 10],
                backgroundColor: "rgba(255,153,0,0.4)"
            }]
        },
        options: {
            animation: {
                onComplete: function () {
                    // set the PDF printing trigger when the animation is done
                    // to have this working, the phantom-pdf menu in the left must
                    // have the wait for printing trigger option selected
                    window.JSREPORT_READY_TO_START = true
                }
            }
          
        }
    });
    HttpContext.JsReportFeature()
        .Recipe(Recipe.PhantomPdf)
        .Configure((r) => r.Template.Phantom = new Phantom() { WaitForJS = true });
</script>    

I am not using jsreport studio, I just copied the body of that template into my cshtml page. How/where do I set the Template.Phantom.WaitForJS property to true?

I copied and pasted the body of this template https://playground.jsreport.net/studio/workspace/SkcQLLOGl/3 into my asp dotnet mvc web app. I cannot get it to render as pdf. The page it is in uses a shared layout, does that matter?

I'm not sure I understand the benefit of using jsreport in an asp dotnet MVC web application. I already have data-binding with Angularjs and printing to PDF is not that difficult. What am I missing?

Discovered that it is also required to add this line:

FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);

to Global.asax.cx for the decoration to work.

I didn't have the filter but added it to FilterConfig.cs in the RegisterGlobalFilters method but the issue remains.
I don't know what you mean about BundleConfig.js.
No need to apologize. I'm fine working through the issues. Thanks.

Yes, I updated my image to show I'm using [EnableJsReport()] and the example works for me.

I'm getting "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." It looks as though JsReportFeature() is returning null. What am I missing or doing wrong?

OK, sounds good. Appreciate the update.

How's the hotfix going? Any update?

OK, thank you. It's hard to follow a gif though. It goes to fast and I can't pause or go back a bit. I hope you'll offer an alternative.

I was trying to follow the gif on this page https://jsreport.net/learn/net-embedded under the heading Report studio.

We're not using .NET Core.

Using jsreport studio and just using the Sample report for now, I followed the directions of selecting all the files and changing the properties to "Copy always". I don't what the next step is so that I can view this report in my .NET MVC 4 app.

Thank you.
