Good Morning,
I've played around with this a bit to create pdf's from the chart
components. I'm using a remote object to get the bit map data that
is stored in database. A little different than your case.
Here's how you would create a bit map object from an event result:
private function getBitMap_handler(event:ResultEvent):void{
var newBD : BitmapData = event.result;
targetImage.source = new Bitmap( newBD );
}
<mx:RemoteObject id="BitmapCFC"
destination="ColdFusion" source="testingPDF1.Bitmap">
<mx:method name="getBitMap"
result="getBitMap_hanlder(event)"
fault="getDataFault_handler(event)">
<mx:arguments>
<arg1>3D3C9DDD-123F-17FA-DFA5A5D93242EF5D</arg1>
</mx:arguments>
</mx:method>
</mx:RemoteObject>
<mx:Image
id="targetImage"
x="10"
y="30"/>
