How can I export a Numbers 3.x chart to PDF?

Solution 1:

  1. open the context menu on the chart (e.g., control-click or right-mouse click)
  2. select Copy as PDF.
  3. paste into application (e.g. Adobe Illustrator) or in Preview create a new file with File -> New from Clipboard and save as PDF.

When copied and pasted in this way, the chart remains a high-resolution vector graphic.
