I don't have time to check but I'd recommend looking at the style template, probably the TABLE or BODY element has some padding/margin in it. Most of the default elements do have a small amount. You could try running it with TAGSETS.STYLE_POPUP and seeing if it reports that margin coming from a particular element.

I don't know how to use these options or what modify.

I search in google "TAGSETS STYLE" but I didn't find something that looks usefull for my problem.

What style are using?

You can specify the custom style in your ods pdf statement, eg.

ODS pdf file="&ruta&name..pdf" startpage=no style=minimal;

SAS(R) 9.3 Output Delivery System: User's Guide, Second Edition

That style will have some padding for the boundaries. You can modify that by creating a custom style.

I wasn't using any style.

I tryied with style = minimal but it also has boundaries. I going to investigate how to create and use a custom Style with no boundaries...

Highly recommend http://support.sas.com/rnd/base/ods/scratch/tables-from-sc-paper.pdf for that purpose. Kevin Smith's explanations are very concise and to the point.

Is there such a thing as no style or does it use the default style?

You're right, I'm using SAS EG default style...

If you're in EG, there's a style editor that is point and click

Tools>Style Manager

Copy the style that want or are using and then modify the margins of 8px to 0px instead.
