ODS Powerpoint Resolution

[Bill]

Building a 4 panel powerpoint slide from proc greplay using the png driver ...

I find the resolution of the graphs to be poor.  Documentation on the SAS site suggests adding the image_dpi option to the ods listing statement, but I can't see any improvement.

Does anyone have any tips to improve resolution? Please and thank you.

Basic code below:

ods listing image_dpi=600;                                                                                                                                                                      

goptions reset=all

Can you post a screenshot of your current output?

[Bill]

Dan, image should be attached here somewhere. I tried PGStats suggestion and found that it made an improvement at 600dpi - but it still doesn't measure up to sasprtc on pdf.

[PGStats]

Seems like this forum is crippled to the point of not allowing attachments of any kind anymore.

Hi: I think that the images are disabled temporarily because of the spamming issue that was happening.

LISTING and POWERPOINT are two distinct ODS destinations. Try setting the image_dpi= option in the ods powerpoint statement.
