I'm trying to make a simple plot in MATLAB r2014a, on a Ubuntu 14.04 machine, some of the labels contains some of the Scandinavian letters æ(Æ), ø(Ø) and å(Å).

But when i'm trying to use whose letters in a label I just get some trash on the plot. I've checked the encoding MATLAB is using with. 

slCharacterEncoding()

It returns UTF-8 with should allow whose letters, i've also tried to change it to windows-1252 which works on windows with the letters.

I know that i can use the 'interpret' 'latex' but i'm looking for a permanent solution.

EDIT: After some time i figured that the letters are available, if i write in the terminal 

char(230)

I get a 'æ' i also fond the other letters with the numbers: æ = 230, ø = 248, å = 229, Æ = 199, Ø = 216, Å = 198 Is it possible to remap them ?

    To my experience, 'interpret' 'latex' is the only permanent solution. Why isn't this a solution for you? – Daniel May 20 '14 at 19:17
  • Because it changes the font of the label, and since i'm using the plots in a report which i'm writing with other students I'd like the labels to look alike each other. – Niva May 20 '14 at 19:24
  • Have you taken a look at [this post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4957988/how-to-use-non-ascii-characters-in-matlab-figures-for-use-in-latex-doc)? – Bentoy13 May 20 '14 at 19:42
  • Yea, I've tried the interpret solution, and i works, but it gives me a weird font – Niva May 20 '14 at 20:04
  • Hi @Niva, so strange! I am using MATLAB2013a and I have no problems with Norwegian words, may be because I am running it on windows? Perhaps you can send your codes to your mates and they can run the graphs for you! – Sergio Haram May 21 '14 at 13:15
  • Yea, it works on Windows and Mac, but me and two of my friends, also with Ubuntu, are having the problem. I could of course send it to my friends but it takes a lot of time, specially now when we are correcting the report. – Niva May 21 '14 at 20:10
