Hi,
Is there a way to generate a chart image from RadHtmlChart for Asp.Net without displaying the chart and without any client code ?

Hello Christophe,
RadHtmlChart renders entirely on the client-side as SVG with JavaScript, so that it is not possible to generate it without the actual rendering. A possible approach is to use a third party library like Phantom JS which runs a browser on the server-side and thus export the image.
On a side note - the chart can be exported entirely on the client-side once it is rendered. Such an example is available here - http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/client-export-manager/applicationscenarios/export-radhtmlchart/defaultcs.aspx?product=htmlchart. The exported file can also be send to the server-side with Web API - http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/clientexportmanager/how-to/save-exported-files
