Instead, you could use ODS RTF to write a graph directly to word. You are limited in the number of fonts and may need to tweak the size of the output with GOPTIONS:

data q ; do x = "26dec2003"d to "15jan2004"d ; y = ceil(100*ranuni(x)) ; output ; end ; run ;

options orientation = landscape ;

ods listing close ; ods noresults ; ods rtf file = "c:\c_data\junk\rtf\graphtest.rtf" ; goptions reset = all ;

axis1 order = "01jan2004"d to "15jan2004"d ;

proc gplot data = q ; plot y*x / haxis = axis1 ; format x date9. ; run ; quit ;

ods rtf close ; ods listing ;

I want to copy a graph from SAS/Graph into word or other software. I know SAS/Graph can save the graph to other kind of format such as JPEG/GIF. But the quality of the image is not good when inserted into word.

I tried directly use Edit->Copy from SAS/Graph and paste into word, but the pasted image only shows a portion(upper-left corner) of the graph.

Help will be greately appreaciated.

Matt
