That won't change the labels, only the variables in the axis placeholders. There is no way to change the font of the labels.

The steps Mike wrote also apply to the axis labels. I just tried it.

I just tried it too, and it didn't work for me. If I plot x against sin(x) then I can chnage the fonts for x and sin(x), but if I add axis labels and a title, say "x-axis", "y-axis", "My Graph", I see no way to change the font of those. Am I missing something?

If I do as mike says, whether or not I slect a graph, I and change the Math Text Font, from the main menu, I change the fonts on all graphs. I don't think you can have different fonts on different graphs. From Help, the Math Text Font style is used for graph labels.

For the arguents, if you slect a graph you can change the arguments (sin(x), x) individully by changing to a user font (user1, user2, etc.), and that will change that argument only, note that you must change sin() and x independently. You are free to modify the user fonts.

Ah yes. Thanks. I was modifying the wrong font. That's what you get for not reading the instructions properly!

I'm sure you came across this the other week.

I remember you saying "Nice trick, didn't know you could do that"......

Surely you don't expect me to remember something from over a week ago!
