Problem Note 38108: Inline style and justification options might not replay with the DOCUMENT procedure when BY groups are used
 |  |  |  |  |  |
When the SAS/GRAPH® options COLOR=, FONT=, HEIGHT=, or JUSTIFY= are used to change the attributes of all or part of the text in a TITLE or FOOTNOTE statement and PROC DOCUMENT is used to replay the output, the replayed text does not apply the specified options. The TITLE and FOOTNOTE statement text in the HTML, PDF, and RTF output uses the default color, font, height, and justification settings.
If you are running the third maintenance release of SAS 9.2 (TS2M3), see SAS Note 38109.
To circumvent the problem in the second maintenance release of SAS 9.2 (TS2M2), do one of the following:
- If BY groups are used to create the DOCUMENT item store using ODS DOCUMENT, download and apply the hot fix that is available on the Hot Fix tab, and then use the workaround that is provided on the Full Code tab.
- If BY groups are not used, implement the workaround that is illustrated on the Full Code tab.

Note: If only TITLE statements use these options, only the titles need to be restated with the ACTITLE option in use. If only FOOTNOTE statements use these options, only the footnotes need to be restated with ACFOOTN in the REPLAY statement.
