8/28/07 24303 - Why does opening the ODS PRINTER destination change the appearance of the graphs in my ODS HTML output?
When a SAS/GRAPH procedure is invoked, it defines the layout of the graph under the current settings and sends the image to each of the output destinations. Because a graph has only one layout regardless of the number ... http://support.sas.com/kb/24/303.html, 19KB 		Usage Note
2/8/06 24217 - How can I shrink or grow my ODS PRINTER output? FONTSCALE doesn't seem to work.

3/16/05 24236 - Why doesn't ODS PRINTER put the last part of my paneled table on a single page when there's room for it?
To explain the question, first of all, it refers to cases where ODS PRINTER output is paneled; that is, where the table is too wide to fit on the page, so it is broken up into panels. For example, a table with columns ... http://support.sas.com/kb/24/236.html, 19KB 		Usage Note
2/23/06 24233 - How do I set up custom fonts for ODS PRINTER?

6/21/05 24239 - How should I use CELLWIDTH= in ODS PRINTER tables?
Header widths try to conform to the data cells beneath them, so setting CELLWIDTH= on the data columns works well. However, don't try to use CELLWIDTH= on the header cells. For SAS 8.2, a column is made as wide as the ... http://support.sas.com/kb/24/239.html, 17KB 		Usage Note
6/21/05 24237 - Where does the UNIFORM option make a difference in ODS PRINTER?

7/11/05 24232 - How do I access national characters with ODS PRINTER?
SAS 8.2 uses the LATIN-1 (ISO 9660-1) character set by default, so you can get to most Western European characters with a default SAS installation setup. (Asian characters are much more complex, and we aren't currently ... http://support.sas.com/kb/24/232.html, 17KB 		Usage Note
6/21/05 24242 - How can I get rid of the rules (gridlines) in my table in ODS PRINTER?
