I recently had to re-install my operating system (Ubuntu). The only thing I did differently is that I installed Matlab on a separate partition, not the main Ubuntu partition. After re-installing, the fonts in my plots are no longer configurable. For example, if I ask the title font to be bold, it doesn't happen. I ran the sample code below on my computer and then on my colleague's computer and the 2 results are attached. This cannot be a problem with the code; rather in the settings of Matlab. Could somebody please tell me what settings I need to change? Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Sameet.

x1=-pi:.1:pi;
x2=-pi:pi/10:pi;
y1=sin(x1);
y2=tan(sin(x2)) - sin(tan(x2));
[AX,H1,H2]=plotyy(x1,y1,x2,y2);
xlabel ('Time (hh:mm)');
ylabel (AX(1), 'Plot1');
ylabel (AX(2), 'Plot2');
axes(AX(2))
set(H1,'linestyle','none','marker','.');
set(H2,'linestyle','none','marker','.');
title('Plot Title','FontWeight','bold');
set(gcf, 'Visible', 'off');
[legh, objh] = legend([H1 H2],'Plot1', 'Plot2','location','Best');
set(legend,'FontSize',8);
