Well, on my computer this gives me a nice big MU symbol!!

I really don't know what is going on. Karl!?

Is it possible in my article that I used the one and
only symbol this actually works for? That seems unlikely,
and yet....

In 30 minutes of fooling around, the only way I could
get an epsilon symbol so far is like this:

xobjview,obj_new('IDLgrText',Enable_Formatting=1,'!4' + String(101B), $
font=obj_new('idlgrfont', name='hershey'))

Something here is not quite right. :-(

Cheers,

David
