Creating graphs with transparent backgrounds

Mill-3
I'm creating a series of bar graphs which are then exported as a Powerpoint file.  A color tint background is used in the Powerpoint slides, but the graphs created in SPSS show up with a white background, instead of allowing the tint to show through. I have the border and chart fill set to "transparent" but that doesn't solve the problem.

Can SPSS generate graphs that will have a "transparent" fill and border, allowing the Powerpoint background fill to show through?

IIRC, you have to export your images as png format to get the transparency.
