System Administrator note:  About fonts in charts

The fonts that are available depend on the fonts that are installed in the system, in the application server's Java VM.
When using international character sets such as Chinese, an appropriate font must be installed. Some fonts to consider are:
Microsoft Arial Unicode MS and Cyberbit.

Default chart options can be set by adding the following to viewsflash.properties:
chart.fontstyle=Arial Unicode MS
chart.fontsize=10
chart.fontcolor=0
chart.colors=8080FF,80FF80,FF8080,80FFFF,FFFF80,FF80FF
chart.bgcolor=0x00FFEE44
chart.3d=true
