Rose Chu writes about a need for graphics output from stat packages.  I am
of course heavily biased so anything I say should be taken with several
grains of salt...

If you are using PC SAS to do the analysis, you can use SAS/Graph for PC's
to do the graphics, it is available (was not during early releases of
SAS for PC's).  If you want the get the graphics into a Mac, use the
Metagraphics facility in SAS/Graph to generate graphics pseudocodes, and
run them through the Mac Metagraphics facility.  This is provided free on
VAX/VMS versions of SAS starting with SAS 5.18, and is available on 
request from technical support.  It is either free or nearly free, and
comes with a handsome technical report that describes how it works.

This product is completing Q/A cycles now.  If you know someone who
recieved the SAS 5.18 X-tape then you can get a copy from them.

This Mac program reads metagraphics files and turns them into PICT
resources so you can paste them into your docs, or save as MacDraw I
files.  It also lets you tinker with the color pallettes and patterns
assigned by SAS/Graph to make them more palatable (ha!).  This is
especially neat if you have a Mac ][.


I am extremely affiliated with the company that wrote the product, and
am very biased.  Be warned.
