Problem Note 43920: Specifying the Albany AMT font when creating SAS/GRAPH® output can cause SAS® to fail

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

If you specify the Albany AMT hardware font when creating graphics output with a SAS/GRAPH® procedure, SAS might fail with errors similar to the following:

   ERROR: access violation, reason mask=00, virtual address=FFFFFFFFBC040000, 
   PC=00000000030181E0, PS=0000001B
   ERROR: Generic critical error.

You might also see these errors if you specify other hardware fonts, including Thorndale AMT and Cumberland AMT. The problem is caused by a flaw in the font-matching code.
