After I added ftext=hwpdf002 in the goptions statement,
the file is fine. You can try hwpdf003 etc.

Good luck.

Subject: SAS GRAPH output as pdf file


Hi all,
  I'm trying to create a SAS graph as a pdf file and be able to name
it. My code below creates a file named 'testd.pdf' but the file won't
open properly in Acrobat.   If I exclude the 'gsfname=out'  option, it
produces a good pdf file named 'sasgraph.pdf'.   What do I need to do
to get a valid pdf file with a name I choose?

   All help appreciated.

---------------------------------------


filename out "testd.pdf";  /* without gsfname=out below, it produces a
valid 'sasgraph.pdf' file */

 goptions reset=all
          device=pdf
          rotate=landscape
          csymbol=black
          ctext=black
          cback=white
          htext= 1.0
          gsfmode=replace

          gsfname=out ;  /* using this gsfname statement creates a
file
                            named 'testd.pdf',
                            but it won't open properly */

          symbol1 interpol=join value=dot      h=1 w=2    color=black;
          symbol2 interpol=join value=square   h=1 w=2    color=black;

  data test;
      do i=1 to 5;
        x=i;
        y=i+2;
        z=y+2;
        output;
      end;

   proc gplot ;
     plot  x*y='*' x*z='-'/overlay;
     title 'test graphic output';
    run;

 quit;
