Code.

proc report nowd data=sashelp.class
     style(report)=[rules=none frame=void ];

run;


Error:


ERROR: The PNG driver can not find any fonts.  No output will be created.

Hi,

When I run that code, I do not get errors in SAS 9.4. (see screen shot) That is a strange error, anyway, since your code doesn't show any graph code that might use PNG as a graph format or need fonts. I think your best resource is to open a track with Tech Support where they can look at ALL of your code and collect information about your SAS version, your operating system, etc.

Thanks much Cynthia, I was running the code in SAS 9.2 on windows platform. Will do check with SAS technical support.

Have you tried re-starting SAS with a fresh session and only running that bit of code?  Also try putting ods _all_ close; before.
