Convert Perspective XY Chart to Report Component XY Chart?

I have developed several interfaces in our MES that have an "Export to Excel" button that takes Table data and turns it into Excel. I now have some XY Charts that I would like to offer a similar "Export to PDF" feature for. I know this could be done via the Report Component XY Chart, but it looks very different programmatically from the Perspective XY Chart. It took me a while to learn the format of the Perspective version, and before I delve into understanding the format of the Report Component version I figured I should ask if anyone might have some pointers on how to go about it...

Teach yourself with Vision's Classic Chart, so you can see results near-instantly. The reporting module uses JFreeChart just like Vision.

Is this possible, or I do have to use lines instead of bars?
