Re: How to add non-English characters to figures

, I want put some (maybe more than 20) text labels beside the specified points on the figure. (Using function text). Maybe it is not doable to add these labels manually.

I am wondering whether there is some problem with my font manager or encoding. Or nobody can get it work in Octave?

Someone has encountered the same problem(please refer to http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/Graphic-accents-and-plot-command-in-octave-3-3-53-td3032491.html). As said in that post, he can get it work in Octave 3.2.4, while it doesn't work in Octave 3.3.53.

Hi! I am new to octave and to this mailing list.

I think that you need UTF-8 support in gnuplot. Read this:

I hope this helps. Pablo

Thanks for your advice.

I tried plotting Chinese characters in gnuplot. It works fine.
I edited ~/.Xresources and ran xrdb -merge according to the instructions in the page you gave. However, octave still don't work.

Is there any other setting I have to change?
