I'd like to use some LaTeX math symbols from here:

http://www.ams.org/publications/authors/tex/amsfonts

such as "\blacksquare" and "\lessdot".

I'm able to use function TEXT to get the usual LaTeX and math functions to display properly, but I don't know how to be able to specify tags in a package that isn't already standard.

Hi Mark,

I'm trying to solve this problem as well. It is easy to use the standard LaTeX packages to print stuff like integrals:

text('Position', [1 30], 'FontSize', 20, 'Interpreter', 'LaTeX', 'String', ['$$\int_0^\infty$$']);

However, I would like to use symbols for the moon and earth to plot them next to a curve in the Figure. A package which contains these symbols is called "wasysym" after which one can use the commands "\leftmoon" and "earth".

I really hope it is possible...
