Whether one is a point-and-click user of SAS Enterprise Guide or a code-oriented SAS programmer, one has multiple options for packaging and delivery, and a possibly bewildering array of options and device drivers for graphs. For production packaging, they can go directly to a finished product/file such as HTML for the web, Word compatible RTF, or PDF. For an ad hoc analytical or research project, they may need to insert graphs in a custom, hands-on-developed Microsoft PowerPoint presentation or Microsoft Word document. This paper shares ideas, insights, and practical experience to help readers make the best choice to suit their needs, and to get the best out of option-rich software from the standpoint of usability (i.e., communication effectiveness) and reliability.
