Test code:
sz=[800,400]
set_plot,'ps'
device,/inches, xsize=sz[0]/75., ysize=sz[1]/75., $
xoffset=0., yoffset=0., /portrait, /encapsulated, $
filename='/users/hyer/science/slides/ps_test.ps'
loadct,39
plot,[0,1],[0,1],xtitle='This here: !MD : is
Greek',font=0,charsize=3
axis,yaxis=1,ytitle='This here: !MD : is Greek',font=0,charsize=2
device,/close
When I run this code, in a fresh IDL session,
everything after the !M tag is in Symbol font,
including the entire Y axis title.
My setup is below.
Any ideas?

It's been a long time since I used these codes, but have you tried
putting a !X at the end of the xtitle string?
