The only factor limiting the resolution of SAS/Graph output is the device
you are using to see or produce the graph.  You can find 70+ working
examples of SAS/Graph programs at:
http://70.88.183.165/sas-guide/links/SASGraphExamples/The list of SAS/Graph
examples are mostly from my SAS consulting work over the past several years
and some are from SAS Institute sources like Observations.  There are
examples from the CDC, the Pharmaceutical Industry as well as some from dot
coms, banks, and telecommunications companies.  They illustrate such things
as the use of hardware fonts, custom annotates, multilple plots per page,
automatic insertion into MS WORD using DDE, automatic FTP destinations,
etc..
