Output

These options control the name, location, and format of the production job results. The following format options are available:

  • Viewer file (.spv). Results are saved in IBM® SPSS® Statistics Viewer format in the specified file location. You can store to disk or to an IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository. Storing to an IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository requires the Statistics Adapter.
  • Web Reports (.spw). Results are stored to an IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Repository. This requires the Statistics Adapter.
  • Word/RTF. Pivot tables are exported as Word tables with all formatting attributes intact (for example, cell borders, font styles, and background colors). Text output is exported as formatted RTF. Charts, tree diagrams, and model views are included in PNG format. Note that Microsoft Word might not display extremely wide tables properly.
  • Excel. Pivot table rows, columns, and cells are exported as Excel rows, columns, and cells, with all formatting attributes intact (for example, cell borders, font styles, and background colors). Text output is exported with all font attributes intact. Each line in the text output is a row in the Excel file, with the entire contents of the line in a single cell. Charts, tree diagrams, and model views are included in PNG format. Output can be exported as Excel 97-2004 or Excel 2007 and higher.
  • HTML. Pivot tables are exported as HTML tables. Text output is exported as preformatted HTML. Charts, tree diagrams, and model views are embedded in the document in the selected graphic format. A browser compatible with HTML 5 is required for viewing output that is exported in HTML format.
  • Web Report. A web report is an interactive document that is compatible with most browsers. Many of the interactive features of pivot tables available in the Viewer are also available in web reports. You can also export a web report as an IBM Cognos® Active Report.
  • Portable Document Format. All output is exported as it appears in Print Preview, with all formatting attributes intact.
  • PowerPoint file. Pivot tables are exported as Word tables and are embedded on separate slides in the PowerPoint file, with one slide for each pivot table. All formatting attributes of the pivot table are retained (for example, cell borders, font styles, and background colors). Charts, tree diagrams, and model views are exported in TIFF format. Text output is not included.

    Export to PowerPoint is available only on Windows operating systems.

  • Text. Text output formats include plain text, UTF-8, and UTF-16. Pivot tables can be exported in tab-separated or space-separated format. All text output is exported in space-separated format. For charts, tree diagrams, and model views, a line is inserted in the text file for each graphic, indicating the image file name.

Print Viewer file on completion. Sends the final Viewer output file to the printer on completion of the production job. This option is not available when running a production job in the background on a remote server.
