That doesn't translate to print (a problem with any dynamic content). Or even, say, to static screenshots.

Who's still printing these days? :) It's safe to say that iPads and smartphones have made it easy to consume content anywhere needed. Interactive documents are definitely where the puck is headed.

It happens more often than you'd think, and as I noted, even static screenshots or images won't reflect the dynamic nature of that graphic.

Those are both issues you could address with small multiples, a Tufte method.
