Since updating from R2021a to R2025a, I can’t seem to be able to use the custom font I want to in plots.
Below is a minimal working example, which used to render the correct font, but which now renders Times.
figure;
plot(0:100,[0:100].^2);
set(gca,’FontName’,’Gill Sans Nova Book’);
xlabel(‘Time (s)’);
ylabel(‘Function, Z (kJ)’);

Notes:
The font name is ‘Gill Sans Nova’ and that ‘Book’ is the weight, similarly to Light or Bold
If I input ‘Gill Sans Nova’ as fontname, it works and depicts Gill Sans Nova Regular
I tried setting the FontWeight to ‘Book’ but that is not a permitted input
If I copy the plot using print(gcf,’-dmeta’) and then copy it in a Word document, the font renders correcly
I am running Windows 10
Font is installed as an administrator

Thanks in advance and best regards,Since updating from R2021a to R2025a, I can’t seem to be able to use the custom font I want to in plots.
