Uh, sure.
PS_Start, TT_FONT="Computer Modern Roman", FONT=1
cgPlot, cgDemodata(1), XTitle='Time', YTitle='Signal'
PS_End
The only requirement is that the font be a true-type
(or OpenType) font and be installed on your machine.
Cheers,
David

What font is that? There is no restriction on which
font you use in your PostScript file when you use
Coyote Graphics routines. Here is how you would make
an output file using the FreeStyle Script font, if you
have it installed on your machine:
cgWindow_SetDefs, PS_TT_FONT='FreeStyle Script', PS_FONT=1
cgPlot, cgDemoData(1), XTitle='Time', YTitle='Signal', /Window
cgControl, Output='freesytle_example.ps'
Cheers,
David

Start -> Finish (or Stop, depending on context)
Begin -> End
</anal_retentive_mode>
