Details

The GHFONT= option specifies the default hardware font in graphics. It applies only to vector graphics devices that support stroke precision in the vector graphics symbol set (for example, IBM terminals such as 3179G, 3192G, and 3472G).
This option is used with SAS software products where you can specify a smaller font and display more information in the tables on the display.
