Normally this is done using:

xdotool key plus

...however, if you have a Swedish keyboard you typically have a acute/grave accent button just left of the backspace key and in this case you can type an actual "+" character by running:

xdotool key shift+dead_acute

If can't figure out how to type "+", have a look at what key is just left of backspace in your localized keyboard and send the keycode for that to "xdotool key".
