Headline truncation while converting RTF to PDF file

Santoshrk — Thu, 14 Jan 2021 20:57:24 GMT

Hi Team,

I have converted the RTF document to PDF format. I have encountered an issue with the PDF display.

Line truncating as above while printing it. After enabling the Fit to window width option in pdf, the display changes as expected and below.

Can you please suggest a way to fix this issue programmatically?

Is there any option to “enable Fit to window width” programmatically or permanent fix?

Thank you and looking forward to the solution.

Regards,

Hi:
With a PDF file, you can only go by what you see when you actually print the PDF file. My guess is that if you printed your document, you would see the line. With PDF output, created by SAS, I can finagle the zoom level so that borderlines and underlines seem to go away. This is just because when PDF is calculating the zoom level for the screen, some pixels come out at a size that isn't rendered smoothly. I find that when I print my PDF (on a printer) or zoom (usually to 100% but sometimes to 125%), then I can see the borders.
You might want to open a track with Tech Support if you find this happening with ODS PDF and your output. I'm not sure you can use SAS to convert an RTF file to a PDF file, so I'm not sure whether SAS or ODS was contributing to this issue or not.
