Hi:

  I do not know whether it is possible to use ODS Excel or ODS Word techniques to get rotated headers in a PDF output file. You may not be able to do this directly with ODS PDF, but may have to create your document and then use a different tool, such as print to PDF functionality to make it work. For example, with SAS out of the picture, if I generate THIS file in Microsoft Word (with rotated headers):

And then from inside Word, I do a Save AS PDF:

Then when I open the PDF file, I see that the rotated headers were retained in the PDF format:

  So I would think that it might be possible to create an Excel or Word document using ODS  and then from inside Excel or Word, do a SAVE AS PDF. In order to rotate the headers, you'd have to refer to the link that was posted or work with Tech Support.

  Over time, I have stopped using rotated headers because reading software will not always read the headers correctly when they are rotated.
