Multiple Graphs per page and Multiple Pages to PDF

bts — Tue, 19 Apr 2016 19:35:01 GMT

Using proc gchart, I'm outputting 6 graphs per page, and will have a total of 60 pages. Unfortunatly, only the final page is being output to the PDF file. I tried using "gsfmode=append" in the goptions statement, but no luck. Appreciate any help! Thank you.

You show a %mend without the corresponding %macro or the macro call, so we may be missing something. Also, what does the log look like? And warnings about no observations matching the where conditions? Any errors?

ODS LAYOUT may be easier to deal with than maintaining the offset and such and the SG procedures, SGPLOT or SGPANEL may be more appropriate.

I think you may be overwriting the graphics area as traditional SAS graphs aren't intended to stack on top of each other. Proc GREPLAY is designed to take graphs created (and saved in catalogs) and combine them into a display area specified by percent of display area. If you go this route make ALL of the graphs as you want and then use the Greplay with a "template" to do 2 by 3 or 3 by 2 displays.

I didn't include all the code so as to save space, but I will now. I don't get any errors (other than warnings regarding the size of the legend).

I can't seem to find any documentation on creating multiple graphs per page and multiple PDS pages.

Below is the full code.

Thanks so much!

Re: Multiple Graphs per page and Multiple Pages to PDF

ballardw — Tue, 19 Apr 2016 22:27:13 GMT

If you want to stick with Gchart I suggest looking into Proc Greplay.

The general approach is that you send the output of each graph procedure to a specified graphics catalog (it helps to use a name that makes sense) with the GOUT option and using the NAME= option on each chart.

Use a TDEF statement to define a display template and save it.

Then use Treplay to point to the graphs created and tell the procedure which graph to place in which panel.

SASHELP.TEMPLT should have a number of example templates but they basically do 2 or 3 graphs stacked vertically or horizontal or 2 by 2.

If you use this approach the text in each graph gets shrunk so is a bit of a guessing game with your specific graphs.

The SG graphic procedures really are much better for attempting to place multiples on a page.

You might consider summarizing all of your data that use similar subgroups and add additional categorical variables to indicate the variable source and then look into SGPANEL.

Do you have any examples on using proc sgplot for outputting multiple pages in PDF? I can't seem to find any... Thank you!
