1. Start veusz 1.18 (pulled from git).
2. Create a text label
3. Insert "1 \cdot 2" in the label field.
If you evaluate the appearance of the resulting label between windows
and linux (ubuntu 12.04) there is a big difference.
On linux I would say it is fine.
On windows, the cdot is too low in height (almost an underscore).

Thanks for the report. I seems ok on my version of Windows 7. Veusz
doesn't do any formatting for \cdot, other than hand over the unicode
character U+22C5 (DOT OPERATOR).
I suspect this is a bug in Windows XP or in Qt's interaction with
Windows XP. Perhaps a missing font or character from a font might cause
it. It probably is not easily fixable, as the Qt people aren't probably
very interested in fixing this sort of thing for an old operating system.
To work around this, you could try the character (MIDDLE DOT) U+00B7
(·). You should be able to copy and paste this character (between the
brackets) to your veusz text field.
Alternatively, another workaround is to specify a particular font:
a \font{symbol}{⋅} b
