Ch19 - Output Delivery System

Chapter 19 (Output Delivery System)

One of the most important changes in SAS, the introduction of Output Delivery System called as ODS. Each SAS procedure produce its unique output . This output was difficult to incorporate into other documents, such as Microsoft Office Word orMicrosoft Office PowerPoint.The Output Delivery System changed all that. Now each SAS procedure creates outputobjects that can be sent to such destinations as HTML, RTF, PDF, and SAS data sets.

 Not only can you send your SAS output to all of these formats, you can, if you are brave enough, customize the output’s fonts, colors, size, and

layout.
