Export Graphs and Charts from Stata to Word with asdocx

[Attaullah Shah]

With the recent update of the asdocx, its users can now export Stata graphs / charts to Word files. Exporting graphs and charts from Stata to a Word document with asdocx is as easy as adding asdocx to the beginning of any graph / chart command. So the syntax remains the same as using asdoc / asdocx with any other Stata command. In this brief post, I show how we can export summary statistics and graphs to the same document. It will take just two lines of codes, with stunning output.

See @Attaullah Shah's link at https://fintechprofessor.com/asdocx/

asdocx is not a free command on SSC. You must order it.

Dear Raymond
asdoc is free and can be installed from ssc. asdocx is its premium version, currently available only for $9.99. It has ton of additional features, to start with, see this link https://fintechprofessor.com/asdocx/

Thanks for this wonderful program. It is working great. I just tried exporting histogram, but it did not work. Can you please help.

sysuse auto, clear
asdocx hist price

[Attaullah Shah]

Thanks for your feedback. The keywords hist and histograms were not included in the graph command list. I have updated asdocx to fix this issue. To update to the latest version of asdocx, type:

asdocx_update

That is wonderful! I have on more question, how can we add title to the graph in the asdocx setting?

[Attaullah Shah]

I have added these features to asdocx now. You can use the title() option to set the graph title and fs_tile() option to set the font size of the title. See the following example, where the title is Scatter of Price and Mpg with the font size of 30pt.

* To update asdocx
asdocx_update

* Use example data
sysuse auto, clear

* Create the graph and send to word document
asdocx scatter price mpg, title(Scatter of Price and Mpg) fs_title(30) replace
