The problem definitely seems to be with gnuplot, and fltk looks fine to me.

Obviously, the FreeType-based text engine is only used for FLTK, not gnuplot (though some gnuplot terminal might also use FreeType for test rendering).

 

Also, with both gnuplot and fltk, I get this result for the fontname:
figure;h = title('Line 1');get(h, 'FontName')
ans = *
figure;h = title('Line 1', 'FontName', 'Times');get(h, 'FontName')
ans = Times

Why do I get '*' for the default fontname, or how can I determine what
font is being used?

Basically, '*' means use some "system" font.

 I apologize for my absence, I had small problems with internet. Fortunately they are resolved. Lectures at our university have officially ended today. Although I had planed to take a exam (English) later, I will take it on Thursday and that would be all regarding my obligation at university. My plan is to redefine project timeline, go through code and solve the bug. Deadline is Saturday. All technical issues related to the Melange are completed.

About multiline text rendering: Michael, you want me to fix this problem with gnuplot not rendering text correctly? Or you have something other in mind. I apologize for misinformation, problem is that you first have to choose graphics_toolkit and just then make plots. If you make plot and then change toolkit, add title it don't work properly. It's my fault I simply overlooked this fact.
