Need workaround in PROC ODSTEXT

[nishant77goel]

 I am getting a white line in middle of orange box created through ODStext proc. Need help to rectify this issue. Output is PDF

code used - 

ods region x=2.5in y=7.25in width=3in height=2.5in;
ods text = "^{style[preimage='/optum/csg/01datafs/prdb/nonp/code/auto/sas/CRDMRemediationHMDB/Nishant/Automation/optum_logo.png']}";

ods region x=0.75in y=8.75in width=6.5in height=1.25in style=[backgroundColor=lightorange];
proc odstext;

What happens if you zoom in in PDF viewer ?

If the line disappears you probably have an artifact due to requested view scaling. The viewer will compress or zoom an image per it's own rules in accordance to client requested zoom level. You can try a larger version of the .png (optum_logo_larger.png), or downsize it externally (i.e. optum_logo_smaller.png) in a paint program. This kind of artifacting can also be noticed in some PDF tables draw with grid lines, the lines might be absent, thinner or fatter than expected in a PDF viewer at differing zoom levels.

Can you reproduced the problem with other non-proprietary images? If so, please upload one to the question.

ods pdf close;

Even if I remove the code part where I am inserting image, still I am getting the white color line in-between the page. It exists even if I Zoom in or out.

Also is there a way we can scale image to fit as it is needed
