Ok, got a reply from the help desk, which I'll re-post in case anyone else has a similar problem. They stated that there isn't a way to size superscripts on a pdf at the moment. As a quick fix, they recommended I try unicode: "Heading^{unicode 00AA}"; Which happened to work great for what I needed, which is only a superscript "a". However, it doesn't solve the problem because there is no unicode superscript for any other letters. Hopefully this will be fixed in future SAS versions!

Thanks Cynthia. The font of Arial isn't critical at all; just used it for testing. Courier will probably work better, actually. Your code revision fixed the problem of SAS changing the "Heading" font, which looks much better! But still the superscript won't change size. I tried everything from font_size=6pt to 24pt and it is always the same size (in pdfs, that is). So, yep, maybe this is a tech support issue? Thanks again, Matt

Thanks for the reply. Yes, this works for rtf output if I nest it in the superscript code: "Heading^{super ^{style [just=c fontsize=10pt font_face=arial] a}}" But for some reason it doesn't work the same for pdf. When I use the same code in a pdf, it ignores the superscript instruction and makes the whole line change font. Not sure what's going on with that.

Hi, I have some superscripts on a report which I am running in both rtf and pdf formats. The superscripts work just fine, but the problem is that the pdf superscript defaults to a huge font (larger than the heading text). The rtf remains smaller than the heading text, but is actually a bit TOO small and could probably be made larger. For example: Code: "Heading^{super a}" RTF: PDF: I have searched for a fix but can't find anything. Does anyone know if there is a way to change the font size for superscripts? Thanks much!

Thanks for this post! I was having a similar issue and this seems to be an acceptable fix for it.

Thanks; that makes sense. It was used in a template under "style data" step, but I'm not sure why I would need it there since I wouldn't want leading spaces in my data, anyway. I think it will work to leave it out, though.

Ok, may have already answered my own question. I had "asis=on" in my style data command. Removing this allowed the pdf text to wrap correctly, however I have no idea why. If anyone can tell me why that worked, I would greatly appreciate it!

I'm having an issue with word wrap when running the same report in both rtf and pdf formats. When I use ods rtf, it breaks between words as expected. For example: Presidents ---------- George Washington Abraham Lincoln Franklin Delano Roosevelt But when I use ods pdf, it automatically breaks within words to fit to the column width: Presidents ---------- George Was hington Abraham Li ncoln Franklin D elano Roos evelt which of course is not what I want. I can't fix it by changing the width of my columns, either, or they won't all fit on the report. Does anyone know if there's a way to fix the pdf output? Thanks much!
