Hi:

demo(graphics) has a lot of nice examples of how to use various features -
one of them is font selection.

font = 3  => italic              font = 4 => bold italic

You need to select the correct aspect of the plot, however: font.main,
font.sub, font.lab or font.axis (from par()).

HTH,
Dennis
