Using JMP • Save and Share Data • JMP Journals

•

Create a JMP journal when you want to store results and present them. There are two types of presentations that you can create using journals:

•

A static presentation embeds the output of one or more JMP reports, fixed at a moment in time. There is no data table, so points cannot be selected, colored, hidden, excluded, and so on. Only cosmetic changes (fonts, axes, sizes) can be made.

•

A dynamic presentation is built from outlines containing text and buttons (links) that help you organize, hide, or reveal a set of data tables and reports. This type of journal is dynamic because you can open reports and tables and interact with them, selecting points, subsetting data, or making more graphs.

You can combine static and dynamic presentations. See Example of Making a Journal for a Presentation for details.

Note the following general information about journals:

•

You can save relevant graphs and reports in a journal and then re-arrange the content.

•

You can save journals to other formats, such as Microsoft Word, HTML, PDF, and so on.

•

Journals support GZ compression to reduce file size. See General in JMP Preferences.

•

Consider setting the Autosave Timeout value in the General preferences to automatically save open journals at the specified number of minutes. This autosave value also applies to data tables, scripts, projects, and reports.

Example of a Journal shows some of the items that you can add to a journal.

Note: Links to directories of files, windows, and all open files look like other links, so they are not included in the preceding figure.
