    You can find option and examples for manipulating the legend feature of one of the highcharts here:
     
    Unfortunately there is no property/option for removing the symbol but there are a few properties which might be interesting - symbolHeight and symbolWidth.     The symbolRadius definition here, http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/legend.symbolRadius ,   
    contains examples. Click "Round Labels" and you'll be presented a jsfiddle showing some interesting label manipulation which you can test for yourself.   
     
    You can essentially remove the symbol by setting height, width and radius to .001 , then hit "RUN" , like:
            legend: {
                symbolHeight: .001,
                symbolWidth: .001,
                symbolRadius: .001
            },
     
    If that trick helps, in studio rightclick your chart -> Edit Chart Properties, expand legend, hit symbols, modify Width, Height, etc.   Or just go straight into the jrxml source and add the property directly via tags, like:
    <hc:chartProperty name="legend.symbolWidth" value=".001"/>
     
    If .001 isn't effective, then you can ask your javascript developers to consider customizing the symbol, following this example:
