FDA06 Since the introduction of the ODS RTF destination, traditional character-based displays of tables and listings are passé. The new capabilities also bring new tribulations as the pharmaceutical community strives to produce high quality statistical reports, maximizing the amount of information on a page, while still conforming to FDA preferences. This paper examines some obscure ODS to RTF formatting tricks available by getting creative with SAS version 8.2. Topics covered include selective bolding and grayin g of data values, insertion of blank separator rows, selective graying of report rows, management of widow and orphan data lines, control of table cell widths and heights, font control, and selecting and displaying special characters (footnote notations, s cientific and mathematical symbols, typography characters). |
