element specifies the colors that are used for different categories
of graphical elements.

Font Specifications in the GraphFonts Style Element
Font definitions in
the GraphFonts style element can refer to registry entries, they can
specify a specific font, or they can specify a font family. For example:
'GraphLabelFont' = ("<MTsans-serif>, Arial, sans-serif",10pt,bold)
specifies the font
family identified by the 
FONTS in the
SAS registry.For more information,
see Changing SAS Registry Settings for ODS in SAS Output Delivery System: User's Guide in SAS Output Delivery System: User's Guide.
MTsans-serif subkey
in the SAS registry. The less than and greater than signs tell SAS
that this is the name of a subkey in the SAS registry. Because it
is the first font listed, SAS uses this font if possible. To view
the font settings in the SAS registry, select ODSFONTS in the
SAS registry.For more information,
see Changing SAS Registry Settings for ODS in SAS Output Delivery System: User's Guide in SAS Output Delivery System: User's Guide.
specifies the Arial
font family. If SAS cannot find the first font listed, it tries to
find the second font listed.
In this example, if
the SAS registry entry for the SAS/GRAPH first tries to use the Albany AMT 10 point bold font.
If it cannot find this font, then it tries to use Arial 10 point bold,
and so on.
MTsans-serif subkey specifies Albany AMT, then Note: SAS might not be able to
find a specific font unless it is registered with the FONTREG procedure.
The fonts provided by SAS are already registered. If you want to add
additional fonts, see SAS Language Reference: Concepts for information about registering
TrueType fonts. See Base SAS Procedures Guide for information about the
FONTREG procedure.
Style Elements for Use with SAS/GRAPH Output
The style elements listed
in the following tables affect SAS/GRAPH output and can be used in styles. These tables list
each style element, the portion of the graph that it affects or was
created to use with, and its attribute values. Attribute values can
be changed with PROC TEMPLATE, as described in Using the TEMPLATE Procedure and Example: Modifying a Style Element.For complete
documentation about the style attributes that can be specified in
each style element, see Style Attributes Overview in SAS Output Delivery System: User's Guide.
