What "pdf-termianl" do you use? What says "gnuplot> show term"?

Here with pdfcairo as "pdf-termianl" there is a Δ in the pdf output file
when I use gnuplot> set xlabel "{/Symbol D}".

Instead of "/Symbol D" you can wrote your script in unicode (UTF8). Than
you can use all unicode signs directly in gnuplot.

Example script (utf8test.plt):

set encoding utf8
set xlabel 'Δ Delta'
set term pdfcairo
set out 'test.pdf'
plot sin(x)
set out


gnuplot> load 'utf8test.plt'

Now there is "Δ Delta" as xlabel in the pdf file
