Generating Output with SAS/GRAPH Procedures

Summary of Default Destinations, Styles, and Devices

Each destination has a default device and default style that are used if you do not specify otherwise. Also, each destination has a set of supported devices. Default Devices and Styles for Commonly Used ODS Destinations summarizes this information for the LISTING, HTML, RTF, and PDF destinations.

You can use any style with any destination. If you specify a device with the GOPTIONS DEVICE= option, you should specify a device that is compatible with all of the destinations that you have open.
