Hello there,

 

I'm having an issue after I produce a graph, such as via PROC SGPLOT, and try to copy it from SAS and paste it to Mcrosoft Office products. The resoulution of the graph is great when I see it within SAS via output window but when I right-click on the graph in the SAS output window, copy and paste it to Word the picture is way less crispy compared to how I see it in SAS.

Is there a better way to copy and paste graphs from SAS to MS Office products?

 

Thanks a lot in advance,

 

Recep

You can also output directly to Word which is useful.

 

ods graphics / imagefmt=png height=5in width=7in;
ods rtf file='/folders/myfolders/mysample.rtf' bodytitle image_dpi=300 
    style=journal;
title 'my sample graph';

proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
    scatter x=height y=weight / group=sex;
run;

ods rtf close;

Change the device/file type. 

 

SGPLOT should create PNG files. Try inserting the PNG files directly into your Office document.

Also make sure you are creating them to the size you want in your office document. If you are growing/shrinking them, the image interpolation might impact the image quality.
