Newly available and licensed fonts are used in the default style applied to the ODS PRINTER destinations (PCL/PDF/PS). If these fonts are in effect, the table that is created by a procedure or by the DATA step might display the value of a text string extending past its cell boundaries into the cell to its right.

To circumvent the problem, do one of the following:

• Add a small right margin to the rightmost column. For example:
  define var / style(column header)={rightmargin=.1in};
• Change the fonts used by the default style. Please see the sample code on the Full Code tab for an example.

For additional information about the new fonts, see SAS Note 31474.
