Changing the Appearance of Output to Match That of Earlier SAS Releases

SAS/GRAPH 9.2 introduces many new features that significantly change the default appearance of your SAS/GRAPH output. To produce output that looks as if it were produced with previous versions of SAS/GRAPH, do the following:

Specify the NOGSTYLE system option. This option turns off the use of ODS styles. See Turning Off Styles.
Specify the FONTRENDERING=HOST_PIXELS system option. This option specifies whether devices that are based on the SASGDGIF, SASGDTIF, and SASGDIMG modules render fonts by using the operating system or by using the FreeType engine. This option applies to certain native SAS/GRAPH devices. (See Device Categories and Modifying Default Output Attributes.) For example, this option works for GIF, TIFFP, JPEG, and ZPNG devices, but it is not applicable to PNG, SVG, SASPRT* devices.
Specify DEVICE=ZGIF in the GOPTIONS statement when you are sending output to the HTML destination.
In other cases where your application specifies a device, specify a compatible Z device driver, if applicable. See Compatibility Device Drivers (Z Drivers) for more information.
