Re: st: Graph fonts

[David Radwin <radwin@berkeley.edu>]

One workaround would be to use the -fontface- option of -graph 
export- to specify your preferred font and save it as a postscript 
(.ps) file. By default Macintosh will open your file in Viewer and 
automatically convert it to a PDF, which you would then save.

I don't know how to retain a non-default font when exporting directly 
to PDF, although that obviously would be preferable. It seems the 
-fontface- option does not work with PDF on Mac.


. graph export mygraph.ps, fontface(Garamond) logo(off)
