Embedded formatting: !M single-symbol tag misbehaving?

by Ed Hyer <ejhyer@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 17, 2008 at 04:30 PM

Test code:
  sz=[800,400]
  set_plot,'ps'
  device,/inches, xsize=sz[0]/75., ysize=sz[1]/75., $
    xoffset=0., yoffset=0., /****trait, /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?
