Output Delivery System: The Basics and Beyond

Revising the Example for UNIX (HPUX, Sun, Solaris, Linux, etc.)

To run the code on the UNIX operating system, you need to make two changes. First, you need to change the pathnames to fit UNIX naming conventions. Second, you need to configure a UNIX printer.

ODS HTML FRAME="OSframe.html"
         BODY="OSbody.html"
         CONTENTS="OScontents.html"
         PATH="/tmp" (URL=NONE);

ODS RTF FILE="/tmp/OSfile.rtf";


ODS PDF FILE="/tmp/OSfile.pdf";

proc univariate data=clinical;
   var age;
   symbol value=star;
   probplot age /normal(mu=est sigma=est) pctlminor;
run;

ODS _ALL_ CLOSE;

The path naming changes are self-explanatory.

After you have made these changes, the HTML, RTF, and PDF files can be generated on your UNIX server.

Starting with SAS 9.2, you can view your HTML, PDF, ...
