So recently I decided to not use the standard markers that Matlab provides and use my own via: a set of fonts including Webdings or WingDings. I make a standard scatter plot, and plot the text (in wingdings), using the text command, over the locations of the markers.
When I save these plots as png files, they print perfectly. They also appear perfectly on my screen after plotting.
However when I save these plots as eps files, the webdings are turning into their original letters 'l' or 'w'. It also looks like it's plotting them in a Courier font, but my default is Helvetica.
I've read through this previous post, but my question differs in that he is looking to use Latex as the interpreter and to include fonts, whereas I don't want to use Latex as the interpreter. However, it seems like my default interpreter (not sure what that is), isn't doing the job when converting to EPS.
Example:
imageR='w'
text(xf2,yf2,imageR,'fontName',font,'FontSize',fontR,'HorizontalAl','left','color','w')
