Sorry about the code, here is a text version for you: ODS RTF file = "temp.rtf"; OPTIONS center; PROC ODSTEXT PAGEBREAK = NO ; p 'Executive Report' / style = {font_weight = bold FONT_SIZE=18pt FONT_FACE=Arial background = CXE8E8E8 COLOR = cx006298 width = 7in }; p ' ' /style = {FONT_SIZE=11pt JUST=L FONT_FACE=Arial background = CXE8E8E8 COLOR = cx006298 width = 7in}; p 'Some important text will be input in this one p statement, which will ultimately wrap across multiple lines. I would like the indent to maintain a constant size giving a solid gray box background appearance.' / style = {font_weight = bold FONT_SIZE=18pt FONT_FACE=Arial background = CXE8E8E8 COLOR = cx006298 width = 7in }; RUN; ODS RTF CLOSE;   The options center is not giving me the desired output.  I appreciate the suggestion and let me know if anything is wrong with the code above.   Thanks again! ...

Hi:   This was what I got when I used the {unicode} function with ODS ESCAPECHAR, but I also needed to use the Arial Unicode MS font for the overline and caret to look correct: Using this code: ods escapechar='^'; ods rtf file='c:\temp\xbar_phat.rtf'; proc report data=sashelp.class(obs=3); compute before _page_ / style={font_face="Arial Unicode MS"}; line 'xbar should be: x^{unicode 0304}'; line ' '; line 'phat should be: p^{unicode 0302}'; endcomp; run; ods rtf close; Hope this helps, Cynthia ...

Cynthia,   Your advice and the information you have provided is greatly appreciated. I recently took the Report Writing 1 class and that provided a solid foundation for me to build off of, but I am still learning all of these very specific styling attributes through various sources. Thank you for your time.   Best, Chris ...

Thank You, I will give that a shot. I have never used raw rtf code, so I will have to read up on that, but your approach sounds feasible. ... View more
