You can add logos or other bitmap files to SAS/GRAPH output by using the Graphics Editor and/or PROC GREPLAY. The method you use will depend on whether you want to add the bitmap to a single graph, or to a large number of graphs.

If you want to add the logo to a single graph, follow these steps:

1. Create the graph using PROC GPLOT, GCHART, GMAP, GSLIDE, etc.
2. Use PROC GREPLAY to display the graph on your screen.
3. When the graph is displayed, select Edit => Edit Current Graph. This brings up the Graphics Editor.
4. From the Graphics Editor, select File => Import Image. This will bring up a window where you can select the specific bitmap file to import.
5. When you select the file, a retangular box the size of the bitmap image will appear on the screen. Use the mouse to position the box where you want the image. You can also resize the logo at this point. Click the mouse, and the image will be displayed in that location.
6. You can either print the graph from the Graphics Editor, or you can exit the Graphics Editor and print the graph using PROC GREPLAY.

If you want to add the same bitmap file to a series of graphs, you can do the following:

1. Create a blank graph by running PROC GSLIDE with only a blank title.
2. Follow steps 2-5 above to add the logo to the blank graph, and save the graph to a permanent catalog.
3. Create the graphs you want to add the logo to using PROC GCHART, GPLOT, GSLIDE, etc. Store these graphs in the same catalog as your blank graph with the bitmap.
4. Invoke PROC GREPLAY, and use the template facility to replay each of your graphs along with the logo graph using the template named WHOLE. (The WHOLE template is in SASHELP.TEMPLT). Replay both the logo graph and your "regular" graph in panel 1 of the template. This causes the two graphs to be displayed on top of each other, and the resulting graph has the logo superimposed on the original graph. For example, suppose that you have created a blank graph with a bitmap logo as described above, and have named that graph LOGO and stored it in a catalog named PERM.MYCAT. Also assume that you have generated 5 bar charts that you have named BAR1-BAR5 and have also stored in PERM.MYCAT. You can use the following PROC GREPLAY statements to combine the LOGO graph with the charts:

        proc greplay igout=perm.mycat tc=sashelp.templt nofs;
        template whole;
        treplay 1:logo  1:bar1;
        treplay 1:logo  1:bar2;
        treplay 1:logo  1:bar3;
        treplay 1:logo  1:bar4;
        treplay 1:logo  1:bar5;
        quit;
