Hi,
I have a two page report that I'm making. The first page is just two tables so a 8.5 X 11 page size is good. However the second page has two columns of five graphs and it fits well on a 8.5 by 14 page size. I've tried:
end of first page code
ods layout end;
ods pdf startpage=now;
ods layout start height = 14in width = 8.5in;
but it just doesn't work.
Any tips to get past this one?
Thanks,
Bruce
Did you take a look at a previous response to this question, namely https://communities.sas.com/message/19235#19235
The size has to be set first and, unless there is something I'm not aware of, you could produce the two pdf files and then combine them outside of SAS.
The reply suggests to make two pdfs. No really a solution. As this report is a daily report, I really don't want to be adding more steps...
Thanks,
Bruce
A little more searching found this:
http://analytics.ncsu.edu/sesug/2011/BB15.Welch.pdf
which I hard coded to :
Dim Doc1
Dim Doc2
Set Doc1 = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
Set Doc2 = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
file1 = Doc1.Open("C:\ods_outputs\alc_report printer.pdf")
file2 = Doc2.Open("C:\ods_outputs\_2011_12_alc_comparative.pdf")
Stack = Doc1.InsertPages(Doc1.GetNumPages - 1, Doc2, 0, Doc2.GetNumPages, 0)
SaveStack = Doc1.Save(1, "C:\ods_outputs\combined.pdf")
and it worked!
