Andy -
You've probably gotten lots of responses by now, but in general, you
want to:
IDL> set_plot, 'ps
IDL> !p.font = 0
IDL> device, /<yourfavoritePostScriptFontName>, /isolatin
(where <yourfavoritePostScriptFontName> is something like Times, Palatino, &c.)
IDL> n_tilde = string(241b)
IDL> xyouts, x_coord, y_coord, 'El Ni' + n_tilde+ 'o', ....
Hope this helps,

enje = string( byte( "361 ) )
xyouts, 0.5, 0.5, /norm, charsize = 3, '!3El Ni' + enje + 'o'
See showfont, 3, "Simplex Roman" for more info.
