Good morning,

I have a pending project that requires generating hundreds, and potentially thousands, of graphs for reports on a quarterly basis. The graphs will be developed in sets, each set going to a different organization. I plan to automate this in S+. I want to print the graphs to pdf files and then send each file to the appropriate organization. The function pdf.graph() is well suited for this, but I found that when a pie chart is exported to pdf, the pie or circle is not smooth but jagged whereas on a graphsheet it's nicely smooth as I would expect. Why is this and is there a way to fix this so I can have nice looking pies? Also, can the created pdf files have bookmarks? SAS's ODS allows for bookmarks, but I hate SAS graphs. Any suggests? Any other solutions?

Thanks,

Walt
