Unicode symbols work as expected
A helpful table of all possible unicode symbols can be found on wikipedia
title5 j=c "Subjects ~{unicode 2265}50 Years of Age";
6
The bottom border of the cell must be drawn to underline the spanning text
Column ("~S={borderbottomcolor=black borderbottomwidth=.5} Cycle 1 Treatment" col1-col3);
7
Printing a line as the first footnote which spans the entire table layout
footnote "~{style [outputwidth=100% bordertopcolor=black Bordertopwidth=.1pt]}";
8
Some exist as unicodes, so that is an option ~{super} and ~{sub} work, but the result is
abnormally small The best results come from offsetting the text,
slightly above or below the line
col1='Age~-12y~{style[font_size=7pt]a}';
col1='t~7y~{style[font_size=7pt]max}';

If a categorical cell has a count of zero, then zero should print with no percentage The zero should align with other counts When both categorical and continuous data
are on one table, decimals should still be aligned
These can all be achieved using 2 columns, one for counts or descriptive statistics, and one for percentages
The template uses (cellpadding=0) so the 2 columns appear as one continuous column

define col2/ display "Drug\(N=" style(header)=[just=right] style(column)=[just=d cellwidth=8% ];
define col3/ display "~{nbspace1}A\&n1)" style(header)=[just=left] style(column)=[just=d cellwidth=8% rightmargin=.3in];
11
Adding blank spaces
col1=‘~_ ~_ ~_ ~_Males’;col1=‘~{nbspace 4}Males’;
Adding blank lines
col2=AESTDTC || ‘/~n || AEENDTC ;col2=AESTDTC || ‘/~{newline 1}’|| AEENDTC;
