If the chart is really basic you can create it yourself inside a template and place it anywhere. There is a very basic example in stencil_pattern.java at www.geocities.com/itextpdf. The better way is to use JFreeChart and write the chart to a Graphic2D. The conversion to PDF is vectorial. You have docs on doing this in www.jfree.org.
