Problem Note 3536: Using a TrueType font on FTEXT= may reduce the output size of graphs
Using a TrueType font for the FTEXT= option on a GOPTIONS statement may
alter the output size of the graph. This is most likely to occur when
creating vertical bar charts. The bars in the chart will be thinner
when a TrueType font is used than when a software font such as SWISS is
specified.
To circumvent the problem, do one of the following:
1. Specify the TrueType font on the AXIS and other statements instead
of specifying FTEXT= on a GOPTIONS statement.
2. Adjust the number of columns in the output using the HPOS= option
on the GOPTIONS statement.
3. Increase the width of the bars in the chart using the WIDTH=
option on the action statement.
4. Specify a software font for the FTEXT= graphics option.
