help iefonts

Title

iefonts -- A helper command to configure graph fonts for use with the Inclusion Economics graph color schemes.

Syntax

iefonts [, options]

serif Set graph fonts to Lora rather than Montserrat.

restore Restore default Stata graph fonts.

Description

The Inclusion Economics scheme is intended to be used with the Inclusion Economics brand fonts, Montserrat and Lora, which can be downloaded and installed from Google Fonts.
Fonts are specified independently of schemes.

This helper command, iefonts, helps configure Inclusion Economics fonts.
Once Montserrat and Lora are installed to your system, you can run iefonts to configure Stata to use them in graphs.

Installation

Before this command has any effect, you must download and install Montserrat and Lora.
Both are available from Google Fonts. Install the entire families.

Note: This command cannot install Montserrat and Lora for you, nor can it check that they are properly installed.

Usage

To set graph fonts to Montserrat, the Inclusion Economics sans-serif font:

. iefonts

To set graph fonts to Lora, the Inclusion Economics serif font:

. iefonts, serif

Note: Our brand guidelines state that graphs should use sans-serifs unless there is a compelling reason to use serifs.

In either case, the configuration is permanent.
Therefore there is also an option to restore graph fonts to the Stata defaults:

. iefonts, restore
