Look for another reporting solution that integrates chart handling in a (seemingly) more reliable way : JReport (very similar to what appears to be available in Base, but organised in a better way, IMHO : http://www.jinfonet.com/manualpro/tutorial/index.htm Pentaho Business Reports (this is the superset of tools to JFreeReport, the reporting tool used by LO Base) http://wiki.pentaho.com/display/Reporting/Pentaho+Reporting+-+User+Guide+for+Report+Designer iReport / JasperReports http://sourceforge.net/p/ireport/wiki/Home/ http://community.jaspersoft.com/wiki/ireport-designer-getting-started The latter enables you to export your report to a multitude of formats, including ODF, and PDF.
