Details

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 SAS/GRAPH Font Lists for a list of valid SAS/GRAPH fonts. You can also use fonts that you have created using the GFONT procedure.
