Hi, Karl:
Now the time has come, (the walrus said) to speak of many things, of sailing ships and sealing wax and cabbages and kings...( sorry, I couldn't resist. I'm a big fan of Alice in Wonderland and Lewis Carroll).
But, in fact, there are many things to say about style attributes and most of what can be known about style attributes and where they can be used is found in the documentation topic entitled, "Style Attributes and Their Values"
http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/odsug/61723/HTML/default/a002972093.htm
So, your time has come to bond with that documentation information. So the answer to your question is yes...and no. You can probably come up with separate RTF and HTML and PDF templates and fiddle with borderxxxwidth to get what you want in those destinations -- as far as borderxxxWIDTH is concerned.
If you look up your attributes of interest, as for example, BorderBottomWidth, you will find this in the doc:
BORDERBOTTOMWIDTH=dimension
specifies the width of the bottom border of the table.
Restriction: The BORDERBOTTOMWIDTH= attribute is valid only in markup family destinations, RTF destination, printer family destinations, and the Measured RTF destination.
whereas, for a different attribute, it says:
BORDERBOTTOMSTYLE= line-style
specifies the line style of the bottom border of the specified cell.
.... more documentation ....
Restriction: The BORDERBOTTOMSTYLE= attribute is valid only in markup family destinations, RTF destination, and the Measured RTF destination.
Note, that BorderBottomWidth is supported in HTML, RTF and PDF, but that BorderBottomStyle is only supported in HTML (markup family) and RTF.
The YES is that you can probably come close to what you want in the 3 separate destinations by fiddling with width dimensions for those destinations where your attribute of choice is supported. The NO is that an attribute like BorderBottomStyle won't work for Printer Family destinations and so you may end up with a slightly different template for PDF than for RTF and/or HTML -- if you were going to attempt to use any of the attributes that are RTF or Markup Family only.
Even when I use the CSSSTYLE= option to specify a CSS sheet for RTF and PDF (this is a new feature in 9.2), the place where I notice the most difference between standard HTML/CSS and RTF and PDF used with CSS is in the cellpadding and border lines. This is what caused me to suggest that you work with Tech Support -- because there may end up being some inherent differences that you will just have to live with.
And rather than get frustrated or get lost by not asking for directions, Tech Support folks can get you started in the right direction to achieve the best look in all 3 destinations.
