The line I put in the .gnuplot file has the same effect as:
export GDFONTPATH="/Library/Fonts/"
gnuplot> set term png font Arial 12
Ticket #26897 discusses the font path issue. Since there's no shell involved with wxMaxima, the environment variable doesn't get passed along. But gnuplot reads it's init file when ever a job is submitted to it..

>> Arial is gnuplot's default font for making PNG files. That font is present in /Library/Fonts but gnuplot is not finding it. Neither did setting the GDFONTPATH variable work for wxMaxima. A way around this issue was to put 'set term png font "/Library/Fonts/Arial.ttf" 12' in the '.gnuplot' file located in my user directory.
