ODS PDF TEXT font_weight not working with Font_face = 'Arial Unicode MS'

[rschneider]

I'm not sure if this is the correct board, but I'm using SAS Enterprise Guide 7.1 to create a PDF report. All of my proc report code works great, but when I use ODS PDF Text to add some additional notes in the document the font_weight and font_style do not work with the font 'Arial Unicode MS' (which is what my company requires). It seems other fonts, but I am wondering if there a reason or a work around for why bolding/italicizing is not working with the font that I need.

Some example code for one of the lines I am trying to include:

ods pdf text="~S={font_face='Arial Unicode MS' font_size=11pt font_weight=bold textalign=center color=black} 50% Initiatives Participation Required";

Thank you!

Try

'Arial Unicode MS Regular'

Fonts get picky about names

Thank you for the suggestions, but unfortunately, this did not work. The output font on the pdf defaults to AlbanyAMT.

Hi, another thing to try is using the newer 9.2 syntax for style overrides
ods pdf text="~{style[fontweight=bold xxx=yyy]text string}";

and if that doesn't work, then try changing the USERTEXT style element in your style template.

These options don't seem to work either. It seems like maybe an issue with this particular font using ods PDF, but I'm not sure.
