- Problem:
- ________
- I'm trying to get a font in a Mma graph other than courier.
-
-
- A System for Doing Mathematics by Computer {ASDMC} (Page 468) says:
- ________________________________________________________
-
- DefaultFont -> font
-
- Example:
- ________
-
- Show[%,DefualtFont->{"Times-Italic",6}]
-
-
- This doesn't work nor does replacing Times-Italic with:
- TimesRom
- NewCenSchRom [Acutual Printer Fonts]
- .
- .
- .
- et cetera
-
- Though changing the size does work.
-
- Also on the screen, the font does alter but doesn't
- affect the print out, it is still courier.
-
- I looked at the PostScript code and the correct font information
- is their.
