Additionally, Proc Tabulate or Proc Report give descriptive stats in a different tabular format, not exactly the one you wanted (Min, Max or Q1, Q2 -  in the same cell). This requires a pre-processing of data. See the similar post here.  ... View more

I see, it bolded survival lines. Thank you again! I really appreciate you taking time to look into my question.  For me, the problem is solved at this point, I've EPS file which I needed to create and should be able to modify plot attributes as needed.  ... View more

Thank you so much, @DanH_sas! Your guidance was so useful, I've learnt something new and found related documentation as well.  Your codes created EPS file without transparency of shaded areas.. Please see below. EPS file. Previously, this plot, with transparency, looked like as below. PNG file. (Same for EPSI file). I've even tried changing original transparency levels (datatransparency=.55)  in the PROC TEMPLATE step, but it didn't produce EPS file causing the same error again. Looks like transparency needs to be completely off for EPS files.  ... View more

I could send matrixplot (from proc corr) into EPS file. Please see below.

Hi,  Can you post the sas code you ran as well? Depending on assigned formats values may get displayed differently.  For example, <0.0001 seems like a p-value.  If so, then specifying pvalue6.4 format in define statement should resolve the issue.  define varname/........format=pvalue6.4;   ...
