Assuming you already 'indented' the text by padding the space in
the var, to show the 'indent' or space, you need to turn on the
asis option in style:

data xx;
a='not indent'; output;
a='   indent '; output;
run;

ods rtf file="c:\temp\junk.rtf";
ods pdf file="c:\temp\junk.pdf";

proc report data=xx nowd;
column a;
define a / display style=[asis=on];
run;

ods rtf close;
ods pdf close;
