ods rtf print issue

Niugg2010 — Thu, 02 Feb 2017 04:11:12 GMT

I want to get rtf output. The first page has orientation=landscape, and the second page has orientation=portrait;

The below is my code. Why it does not work?

options orientation=landscape obs=5;
ods rtf file="C:\XXXXX\Desktop\111.rtf";
proc print data=sashelp.class;
run;

options orientation=portrait;
proc print data=sashelp.retail; run;
ods rtf close;

Another question is if I only use orientation=portrait, which option can put these two proc output in one page, not like above the outputs are on different pages? Thanks.

What do you mean by it does not work?

Are both landscape ? Are both portrait ? Is there a syntax error?

Next time post your log.

Meanwhile try next code (I haven't tested it):

options orientation=landscape obs=5;
ods rtf file="C:\XXXXX\Desktop\111.rtf";
proc print data=sashelp.class;
run;


ODS options orientation=portrait;
proc print data=sashelp.retail; run;
ods rtf close;

Hi:
This Tech Support note shows the exact syntax you need to use to do what you want to do. My default every procedure step will start a new page.
