I exported to 150 pictures (.png) using the ods pdf. the code was as follows:

ods pdf file='c:\........pdf ' ;

major code

ods pdf close;

I wanted to rotate pdf from A form to B form. Thank you.

Does it seem that the problem couldn't be solved until today.?

Hi:
It is possible to switch orientations in ODS PDF output files. You need to do it between steps. I will post an example as soon as I find it. This feature has been available for quite a while. The method shown in the older posting (for ODS RTF) should also work for PDF now.

Hi:

Basically, you just need to switch orientation between steps. I've used a screen shot to highlight the switch. Note that after you issue the OPTIONS statement, you have to then issue an ODS PDF statement to cause ODS to "refresh" the options for the next output.

Hope this helps,

Cynthia

I am so excited now! I got it.

It may be briefly summarized in the following syntax.

options orientation=landscape; 
ods pdf;
ods pdf file='C:\sasabc\png\kkk.pdf';
ods graphics /   width=1700px  height=1100px  ; 

1)proc sgplot
2)proc sgplot
....
499)proc sgplot
500)proc sgplot   /*print 500 plots*/

ods graphics off;
ods pdf close;
