Code and text RTF to PDF

[Cristina_inet]

Good morning,
We are trying through SAS code in SAS Studio that a program that exports RTF file does the same with PDF file.
We can't run scripts. It would be only through code.

It had occurred to us to change the ods RTF option to ods PDF by putting all the code in a macro,
but the code is too dense to change each option. do you know any way?
Thank you very much and greetings.

This is what the macro language is made for.

Search all format-specific ODS statements and options, and make them conditional. Note that you do not need a macro definition for this, %IF %THEN %DO %EÑD %ELSE %DO %END can be used in "open code".

More details may be needed. Do you have more than one ODS RTF or ODS PDF statement?

You can generate both type of output if single ODS statements easily:

ods rtf file="<path>\documentname.rtf" <other rtf options>;
ods pdf file="<path>\documentname.pdf" <other pdf options>;

<one or more procs or data steps creating ods output>

ods pdf close;
ods rtf clsoe;

Which ods options are involved where? Details do matter. Even a skeleton of what you want to generate.

You might also investigate Proc Document which can be used to assemble already generated output into a single document. So generate all proc output and then use Proc Document to create the different versions.
