Hi Tim,

I assume you are using direct graphics? If so, I'm not sure what the
problem is with your fonts. I am able to use the "!20S!3" in both the
plot title and xyouts, using either a direct graphics window or sent
to a postscript file. I am on a Win32 box.

The "$\oplus$" (along with the other LaTeX commands) is only available
for new graphics. For example:

x = FINDGEN(10)
y = RANDOMU(s,10)
p = PLOT(x, y, TITLE="$\oplus$")
; To get the other planets (and the Sun!) you need to use a Unicode
font:
t = TEXT(5,0.5,"$\Earth \Sun \Saturn$", /DATA, FONT_NAME='Arial
Unicode MS')

Cheers,
Chris
