You can export the multiple charts in single page by passing the multiple chart objects in the export method of chart. To export multiple charts in a single page, follow the given steps:
Initially, render more than one chart to export, and then add button to export the multiple charts. In button click, call the export method in charts, and then pass the multiple chart objects in the export method.
