Re: [Pkg-octave-devel] Wrong octave/gnuplot plot output

Not quite. Octave changed the way it specifies what "default font" means to the gnuplot backend, namely from specifying a default of "" to the string "{}". Refer to the bug report leading to that change [1], there was a good reason for it. IIRC what this ends up doing is making ghostscript now choose the default font rather than gnuplot. This is why Jordi points out it is ghostscript's default font that you have a problem with.
Ok, so now the options are:
-ask ghostscript to change its deafult font
-modify ~/.octaverc
-use graphics_toolkit("fltk") after bug being solved

If you generate an eps file instead of png you can compare the font selection directly in the files, you will see the difference. Added bonus, this takes ghostscript out of the equation.
I dont' understand this, eps output uses the same font as png one.

Thanks
