Hi Sergey: [...] It is up to you, but you should be aware that the plpoin API is not recommended any more (except for old-fashioned device drivers) since it was designed for the internal Hershey fonts that only have a relatively small list of fairly ugly glyphs available. I recommended plstring instead of plpoin to you by design since it gives you ready access to your system fonts (and the millions of different unicode glyphs that are typically available for such fonts) for all modern device drivers such as qt, cairo, wxwidgets, svg, psttf, etc. With regard to your previous post concerning PLplot version, use <http://plplot.sourceforge.net/docbook-manual/plplot-html-5.12.0/plgver.html> to figure out which version you have. (Note, that much of the PLplot API does not change from one version to the next and, for example plgver has been around for a very long time. However, if your version is not 5.12.0, building that latest version (the only one we support) should be completely straightforward for you.
