Yes you can improve the image quality.  The default DPI for ODS PDF output is 150 DPI.  Each image you provide also has its own DPI.  Depending on what version of SAS you are running ODS PDF will attempt to resize your image so the output DPI and the image DPI match. To find your image DPI look at your properties.  Find out what the horizontal and vertical DPI settings are.  Remember the higher DPI the more clear and detailed you output and image will look.  I'd love to help you more but I need a little more information.  Technical Support can help or you can email ods@sas.com and I'll look at your image and we can find a perfect DPI for your needs ...

This is one of those times where Graph and ODS don't share syntax.  BOX=1..4 is more for GRAPH titles.  But we can do what you want in version 9.2 and later with individual border control. You can set a width and a color for the top|bottom|right|left of the title.  Try this code and see if it helps your situation : ods escapechar='^'; ods pdf file="pen_demo.pdf" notoc; title1 '^{style [bordertopcolor=green bordertopwidth=1pt borderbottomcolor=green borderbottomwidth=1pt borderrightcolor=green borderrightwidth=1pt borderleftcolor=green borderleftwidth=1pt] box this text}'; proc report data=sashelp.class nowindows ; columns _all_; run; ods pdf close; Hope this helps!

Sorry SAS v9.1.3 SP4 is too early,  Object oriented layout with DATA _NULL_ was just a prototype at this point.  I tried your code at V920 and it works much better. Scott ... View more

I don't know of any document but the most important thing to remember is the default DPI for images in PRINTER (PS, PCL, PDF) is 150.  You can change the default with the DPI= option on the PDF statement.  Also most image tools allow you to change the DPI of the image itself. Background colors could be skewed because images with transparency (GIF and PNG) are only supported in 9.3 Not a complete answer but helpful hints I hope. Scott ... View more

Sorry for late response as I've been on vacation.  The best way in ODS PDF is to use the UNICODE inline function.  To find the minus symbol you need to bring up the character map (on windows) to see all the available glyphs for a certain font.  For example.... the minus sign is '002D' in Arial. In your SAS code you could do this ... Title 'Here is a minus sign ^{unicode 002D}';  ** don't forget to set your escapechar first ** Hope this helps! Scott ... View more

I can help with this. First a couple of explanations to help understand why things are placed where they are. In PDF there is one title per page. Trying to put multiple titles above each proc step won't work. In situations like this you need to use ODS PDF TEXT statements to put out lines of text between procs. Graphs by default will ask for a page break and use an entire page for its output. Using goptions (graph options) and setting hsize (horizontal) and vsize (vertical) will tell the graph object what size you want it to have. Startpage = no is the perfect way to tell ODS that you want as much output as possible on a page. But if the output exceeds one page it will page break as needed to get all your output to display. So if your tables are not static you might have to readjust based on their new size. Here is some quick code I put together that I think will help in solving your problem: ods escapechar = '^'; goptions reset=all hsize=7in vsize=2in; title; ods pdf file='report.pdf' startpage=no; ods pdf text = "^{style [just=center] Age}"; proc print data=sashelp.class(obs=10) noobs; var age; run; ods pdf text = "^{newline 4}"; ods pdf text = "^{style [just=center] Gender}"; proc print data=sashelp.class(obs=10) noobs; var sex; run; ods pdf text = "^{newline 4}"; ods pdf text = "^{style [just=center] Gender}"; proc gchart data=sashelp.class; hbar sex; run; ods pdf close; After seeing the output you might want to add some fancy inline formatting to your text statements to add color or maybe a different font.
