I am using ODF PDF, and I trying to figure out a way to turn off bold in titles.  Here are the things I've tried.  In all of these cases, the title is still bold.  Footnotes, however, are not bold.  Any suggestions?

 

  1. Changing the font in the TITLE statement, which is supposed to clear bold.  E.g.:
    title1 height = 8pt font = 'Arial' justify = left 'title ' justify = right "more title ";
  2. Adding escape character style information.  E.g.:
    ods escapechar = '`';
    title1 height = 8pt font = 'Arial' justify = left '`{style [fontWeight=light]}title ' justify = right "more title ";
  3. Changing the template.  E.g.:
    proc template;
        define style pearlEdit;
            parent = styles.pearl;
            style fonts /
                'TitleFont2'          = ("Arial"                    , 8pt)
                'TitleFont'           = ("Arial"                    , 8pt)
                'StrongFont'          = ("Arial"                    , 8pt)
                'EmphasisFont'        = ("Arial"                    , 8pt)
                'FixedEmphasisFont'   = ("<monospace>, Courier"               , 8pt)
                'FixedStrongFont'     = ("<monospace>, Courier"               , 8pt)
                'FixedHeadingFont'    = ("<monospace>, Courier"               , 8pt)
                'BatchFixedFont'      = ("SAS Monospace, <monospace>, Courier", 8pt)
                'FixedFont'           = ("<monospace>, Courier"               , 8pt)
                'headingEmphasisFont' = ("Arial"                    , 8pt)
                'headingFont'         = ("Arial"                    , 8pt)
                'docFont'             = ("Arial"                    , 8pt);
        end;
    run;
    ods pdf file = "My PDF.pdf" style = pearlEdit;

I figured it out!  I was plotting a graph using sgplot, and the titles were becoming part of the graph, using the style for the graph rather than the document.  I added noGTitle and noGFootnote to my ODS PDF statement, and now the constant bold is gone.

 

It might be a bug that bold cannot be turned off with gTitle.

 

Sorry if I wasted anyone's time.

If you don't need the Title behavior of repeating for different procedures or the use of the #By directives you might try "

1) no title at all

2) ODS Text or Proc ODSTEXT to place text before a graph object.
