ODS PDF - Scaling graphics

chimanbj — Tue, 17 May 2016 22:19:49 GMT

Hello!

I am trying to create a cover page in a PDF, and have found an option in ODS LAYOUT/REGION that allows for the scaling of images. The syntax looks like this:

ODS REGION x=90 pct y=10.3 in width=1 in height=1 in;
ODS PDF text="^S={postimage='R:\SESUG 2008\hmc.bmp^scalewidth'}";

The ^scalewidth or other variants of the same don't work. I can accept that the commands are old, but were they replaced, or do I have to do my own scaling outside of SAS for a PDF report?

The syntax in your example was from 9.1 and declared experimental. It is no longer valid.

The syntax to use is:

ODS text='^{STYLE [preimage=''c:\temp\saslogo.png?height=2cm&width=14cm'']}';
