Latex fonts in matlab

Question

Is it possible to convert the font of a matlab plot to be the same of latex fonts. For example I can modify the font of a plot by:

x = -pi:.1:pi;
y = sin(x);         


        

Answer 1

You can define the font within the latex strings. For instance, to change between serif font (Roman) and sans serif font (Helvetica, I guess):

text(0.5, 0.8, '\textsf{sans serif}','interpreter','latex')
text(0.5, 0.7, '\textrm{roman}','interpreter','latex')
text(0.5, 0.6, '$$\mathsf{math\,\,mode\,\,sans\,\,serif}$$','interpreter','latex')
text(0.5, 0.5, '$$\mathrm{math\,\,mode\,\,roman}$$','interpreter','latex')
