Syntax

return-code-variable=GSET('TEXFONT', font);


Description

The GSET('TEXFONT', . . . ) function selects a SAS/GRAPH font for the text. The aspect source flag (ASF) of TEXFONT must be set to 'INDIVIDUAL' for this attribute to be used outside of a text bundle. See Font Lists for a list of valid SAS/GRAPH fonts. You may also use fonts you have created using the GFONT procedure.


Argument Definitions

font character string enclosed in quotation marks or character variable name; the name of a font that can be accessed by SAS/GRAPH software. If you want to use the hardware font, submit
rc=gset('texfont', ' ');

When DSGI is used with long font names, the font name must be in double quotation marks that are embedded in single quotation marks, as in '"HW font name"'.
