Dear Neil,you are right. My problem was, that I installed a non-truetype-font, and therefore could not use it in Stata. It seems to work the way you explained.
Thank you Klaus Am 01.09.2011 11:14, schrieb Neil Shephard:

Maybe this is interesting to other users, as my request is a little of a niche problem.Depending on your OS (which you don't tell us) you could see the following help pages... man unixfonts man macfonts man winfonts These indicate that graphs under *NIX allow any font, Windows they must be TrueType and there is no "Graph" section under the -man macfonts- help page. Generally you can set the font for your graphs under Preferences -> Graph Preferences, I guess what is listed there depends on what fonts you have installed on your system (assuming they are somewhere that Stata will automagically find them).
