Font Selection

Each of the four special software fonts matches a particular SAS/GRAPH font, as shown in Table D.1. If you are using a software font for the general text on your graph, choose the special software font corresponding to the SAS/GRAPH font in the table that provides the closest match.

Table D.1: Special Software Fonts

Special Software Font	Matching SAS/GRAPH Font
QCFONT1	SIMPLEX
QCFONT2	DUPLEX
QCFONT3	SWISSE
QCFONT4	SWISS

Eight special TrueType fonts are provided to match a variety of general fonts based on three criteria, as summarized in Table D.2.
