It works fine (see result here: http://imagebin.org/244612) in Win32 with
this code:

program noguidemo;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

uses
  Interfaces,
  Classes,
  FPCanvas,
  FPImage,
  FPImgCanv,
  TATools,
  TAGraph,
  TASeries,
  TADrawerCanvas,
  TADrawUtils,
  BGRABitmap,
  TAChartUtils,
  TADrawerBGRA;

var
  chart: TChart;
  bs: TBarSeries;
  img: TBGRABitmap;
  d: IChartDrawer;
begin
  chart := TChart.Create(nil);
  chart.LeftAxis.Marks.LabelFont.Name := 'Arial';
  chart.LeftAxis.Marks.LabelFont.Size := 10;
  chart.LeftAxis.Marks.LabelFont.Orientation := 450;
  chart.LeftAxis.Marks.Frame.Visible := True;
  chart.LeftAxis.Marks.Frame.Style := psSolid;
  chart.LeftAxis.Marks.Frame.FPColor := colBlack;
  chart.LeftAxis.Grid.FPColor := colDkGray;
  chart.BottomAxis.Marks.Visible := False;
  chart.BottomAxis.Grid.FPColor := colDkGray;
  chart.Color := $FFA0A0;
  chart.BackColor := $FFFFFF;
  bs := TBarSeries.Create(nil);
  chart.AddSeries(bs);
  bs.AddXY(1, 10);
  bs.AddXY(2, 7);
  bs.AddXY(3, 8);
  img := TBGRABitmap.Create(chart.Width, chart.Height);
  d := TBGRABitmapDrawer.Create(img);
  img.CanvasBGRA.Font.Antialiasing := true;
  img.CanvasBGRA.Font.Name := 'Arial';
  d.DoGetFontOrientation := @CanvasGetFontOrientationFunc;
  chart.Draw(d, Rect(0, 0, chart.Width, chart.Height));
  img.SaveToFile('test.png');
  img.Free;
  bs.Free;
  chart.Free;
end.

But, with NoGUI, the error is:
