how to add Source Sans 3 font to SAS for Windows

MA77 — Thu, 08 Aug 2024 18:48:12 GMT

I have downloaded and moved the files to C:\windows\fonts folder. When I try to register them I get the following message:

1 Proc fontreg mode=all msglevel=verbose;
2 fontfile "c:\windows\fonts\source sans 3.ttf";
3 run;

ERROR: A problem was encountered with "c:\windows\fonts\source sans 3.ttf". It is not a valid
file or directory.

SAS tech support tells me the FONTFILE statement must be the name of the font file on disk. I have no idea what the name is and on-line searches have offered nothing.

Hoping someone out there has successfully accomplished this and is willing to share.

Thanks

Mark

The documentation states that statement fontfile is for Type1 fonts with .PFM and .AFM extensions.

Have you tried the truetype statement?
