Managed to figure out the problem within 2minutes of posting this.
> png = CreateObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Image");
> png.getInstance("C:\CFusionMX\charting\cache\#image_file#");
> document.add(png)
should be
png = CreateObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Image");
mypng = png.getInstance("C:\CFusionMX\charting\cache\#image_file#");
document.add(mypng);
Cheers
