Use the Font installer in the Windows control panel to install the SAS Monospace fonts on your system. They are located in the SAS\CORE\SASDLL directory (the installer will ask). If you copy them to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory (Win 3.11) or the WINDOWS\FONTS directory (WIN95) they will be available for all applications using TT fonts even when SAS isn't running.

I have been amazed at the way that SAS dynamically loads and unloads these TrueType fonts. It is amusing (I amuse easily) to put up a document using them and load and unload the SAS system. The document has and then has-not the font. The first time I did this I thought I had some sort of strange Word Virus. I sure wish I knew how SAS set this up...
