I needed to export one chart from a Calc spreadsheet to PDF to include in a

BTW at the bottom of the "Export as PDF" window there is "selection" box but
I cannot manage to select this box...

Since apparently there is no easy way to export a particular chart to a
graphic format (jpeg, gif, pdf, etc.) I looked around and found a macro that
export all charts of a calc spreadsheet to EPS.  See the code snippet in
http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=60155

This is not exactly what I want, but at least with some postprocessing I can
get my particular chart as a single file.

 - Is there definitely to simpler way to export one chart and store it into
a file by itself?
 - How would you modify this macro so as to get PDF files instead of EPS?

Select a range of cells which includes the chart but nothing more. Then go to File > Export as PDF. Give the PDF file a name and click OK. In the next dialog, where it asks for Range at the top, choose Selection. That should do it.
