Hello, First, thanks a lot to all the people involved in the development of Veusz! I just discovered it recently and it looks like a really amazing program.
I used to use Matlab a lot back in the days, however its prohibitively high price put an end to that. Some time ago I switched to python, numpy and matplotlib which produces amazing plots however I got tired of editing python scripts all the time, so I started writing a GUI for matplotlib (well for a very small subset of what matplotlib can do). On of the main motivation for me to use matplotlib is that you can use Latex for the text rendering, which means that once you have the plots ready, the fonts used in them look exactly the same way as the main text in the Latex document they are in. Then I discovered Veusz and basically realized that this is what I was envisioning when I started working on my GUI. The only issue which I am having with it is that I cannot get the text (for example axes labels) to have true Latex look. I chose cmr10 font (which I assume means Computer Modern Roman, which is what Latex uses by default, However if I type \mu as a axis label, that \mu does not appear to be the same as in Latex. So I'm wondering whether I am doing something wrong, or whether the text rendering in Veusz is not really done by Latex, although the syntax is Latex-like? Is there currently any way to make the text in a Veusz plot to look exactly the same as the text in a Latex document? Thanks a lot in advance and congratulations once again for the program you've written.
