ODS ESCAPECHAR= and inline formatting (experimental since 8.2) can be used to make font changes directly on a PUT statement.

  ods rtf file='temp.rtf';
  ods html file='temp.html';

  ods escapechar='^';

  data _null_;
    file print;
    put 'this is ^S={font_weight=bold}bold^S={}
         and this is ^S={font_style=italic}italic^S={}.';
    put 'this is  ^S={font_size=14}big^S={}
         and this is not.';
    put '^S={foreground=red}Color ^S={}
         can be changed as well.';
  run;

  ods _all_ close;
  ods listing;

If you specify FILE PRINT ODS in your DATA step and you want one column to always be of a different font, or weight, or so forth, you might prefer to use the style template to make the font change.

For more information about FILE PRINT versus FILE PRINT ODS, see A DATA Stepper's Introduction to ODS (TS-664).
