Hi,

this time i need to create EDF plot which is editable for journal editor. It should be generated as editable PDF, or PPT, XLS, DOC/DOCX. The thing is that i create EDF plot via npar1way procedure which is a part of my analysis.

Could you please provide me a code which will export the generated plot (from npar1way) in editable pdf?

Thank you in advance for any response.

Regards,

Skillside

This code produces PDF, PowerPoint, and RTF (Word) documents as output.

ods pdf file="s:/workshop/edf.pdf";
ods powerpoint file="s:/workshop/edf.ppt";
ods rtf file="s:/workshop/edf.rtf";
data Arthritis;
   input Treatment $ Response Freq @@;
   datalines;
Active 5 5 Active 4 11 Active 3 5 Active 2 1 Active 1 5
Placebo 5 2 Placebo 4 4 Placebo 3 7 Placebo 2 7 Placebo 1 12
;

proc npar1way edf plots=edfplot data=Arthritis;
   class Treatment;
   var Response;
   freq Freq;
run;
ods pdf close;
ods powerpoint close;
ods rtf close;

The PDF is editable in Adobe Acrobat, the PPT in PowerPoint, and the RTF file in Word. The EDF graph produced is an image, and like other embedded images, can be embellished in those applications by adding text, highlights and call-out boxes.

Thank you, it seems that it works!

Hope that journal editor won't request different format.
