Using Proc sgplot, and having some numbers needed to be subscript.

Tried to use

ODS escpechar='^";   and move options, but they did not work.

Data test;

input x y;

datalines;

1 2

3 6

7 10

8 19

;

run;

proc sgplot data=test;

   scatter x=x y=y;

  xaxis label="H2O";

yaxis label ="(NH3)2SO4";

run;

Thanks, I tried the following code, the output was not correct.

Data test;

input x y;

datalines;

;

run;

ODS escapechar='^';

proc sgplot data=test;

   scatter x=x y=y;

  xaxis label="H^{unicode '2082'x}O";

yaxis label ="(NH^{unicode '2083'x})^{unicode '2082'x}SO^{unicode '2084'x}";

run;

The reason you're seeing the boxes is that the font you're using does not support enough of the Unicode specification to include all of the superscipt and subscript values. The example referenced by Art contained a little piece of code similar to the one below:


proc template;                                                                                                                         
   define style style.unifonts;                                                                                                               
   parent=Styles.Listing; /* or your favorite style */  
   style Graphfonts from GraphFonts /                                                                                                                  
   'GraphValueFont' = ("Monotype San WT  J",12pt)                                                                                            
      'GraphLabelFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",14pt)
      'GraphDataFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",12pt)
      'GraphTitleFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",12pt);                                                                                           
   end;                   
run;

If you set this style as your ODS style, then you're boxes will be filled! 🙂

ods listing style=unifonts;

   scatter x=x y=y;

  xaxis label="H^{unicode '2082'x}O";

yaxis label ="(NH^{unicode '2083'x})^{unicode '2082'x}SO^{unicode '2084'x}";

run;

Hope this helps,

Thanks Dan!

the HTML Type output was not correct.

The PNG Type output was correct.

Normally I copy the figure from HTML  Type, because it looks very neat.

Seemed to work ok for me.  Did I miss something?  The code I used was:

Data test;

  input x y;

  datalines;

1 2

3 6

7 10

8 19

;

proc template;                                                                                                                         

   define style unifonts;                                                                                                               

   parent=Styles.Default;  

   style Graphfonts from GraphFonts /                                                                                                                  

      'GraphValueFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",12pt)                                                                                            

      'GraphLabelFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",14pt)

      'GraphDataFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",12pt)

      'GraphTitleFont' = ("Monotype San WT J",12pt);                                                                                           

   end;
