Overview

SAS/GRAPH procedures that produce graphics output require a device driver to display the output. This chapter discusses the role of device drivers in generating SAS/GRAPH output, provides directions for selecting and specifying device drivers, and explains how you can change the settings of device parameters.

Other tasks related to device drivers are discussed in SAS/GRAPH Output and Bringing SAS/GRAPH Output to the Web and in the SAS Help facility for SAS/GRAPH. These include

• displaying graphics output (see Displaying Graphics Output on Monitors or Terminals)

• previewing on one device how output will look on another device (see Previewing Output)

• sending graphics output to a printer or other hardcopy device (see Printing Graphics Output)

• creating external files in other graphics formats for use with other applications (see About Graphics Stream Files)

• creating graphics output that can be referenced in an HTML file and viewed with a Web browser (see About Graphics Stream Files)

For a description of device catalogs and for information on creating and modifying device drivers, see The GDEVICE Procedure.
