Exported figure size is huge and specified font of the label is ignored in 2014b

Hello.

I updated MATLAB to 2014b last week. After update, I found some problems regarding figure in 2014b, but don't how to solve it.

1. Specified label font doesn't work in 2014b. I specified label font as "Times New Roman", but it looks like "Arial". It works in 2014a, but not in 2014b.
2. Exported figure size is extremely huge. When I export the figure as emf or eps using "print", the size of figure file is about 200 MB. It was about 500 kb when I ran the code in 2014a.

After I found out something wrong in 2014b, I ran my code in 2014a again, but it works well. I don't know how to solve the problems. Would you give me an advice?

Mathworks really needs to address these graphics issues. I've gone back to 2014a because of all that. Does mathworks expect us to wait until 2015a comes out before we have a working product?

Answer 1

[Rob Comer]

Regarding part 1 of this question, you can control the contour label FontName and other label text properties in R2014b or R2015a, as in this example:

[C,h] = contour(peaks);
clabel(C,h,'LabelSpacing',64,'FontSize',16,'FontName','Times New Roman')

if you download and install one of the workarounds that is available here: http://www.mathworks.com/support/bugreports/1114747. (There are separate workarounds for R2014b and R2015a.) For calls to clabel that include the contour object handle h, the workaround will enable you to specify a total of 12 properties that affect the appearance of contour labels: Color, FontName, FontSize, FontWeight, and 8 others.
