cairo (pdfcairo, pngcairo, epscairo, wxt terminals)

Some terminals, including all the cairo-based terminals, access fonts via the fontconfig system library. Please see the fontconfig user manual. It is usually sufficient in gnuplot to request a font by a generic name and size, letting fontconfig substitute a similar font if necessary. The following will probably all work:

     set term pdfcairo font "sans,12"
     set term pdfcairo font "Times,12"
     set term pdfcairo font "Times-New-Roman,12"
