Did you include an

 

ods pdf close;

 

after the procedure? The Close instructions tells the ODS destination that SAS is done with the file and completes the task. Until then the destination file is incomplete and likely locked by SAS so that other applications such as a PDF viewer, cannot open the file or display the contents correctly.
