Use two kinds of the font in FrameLabel

Question

Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, Pi}, PlotTheme -> "Scientific", 
FrameLabel -> {"x (rad)", "Signal (%)"}, 
BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> 25, FontFamily -> "Latin Modern Math"}]

How can I use two kinds of the font in FrameLabel at the same time?

Like, I want to let "(%)" in "Latin Modern Math" but others are in Times.

FrameLabel -> {"x (rad)", 
  Row[
   {Text[Style["Signal", 24, FontFamily -> "Times"]], 
    Text[Style[" (%)", FontFamily -> "Latin Modern Math"]]}]}

Thanks! It works perfectly in some of my trivial and similar graphs! – tablecircle Jul 14 '17 at 09:20

Edit: In principle the simplest answer is the same as this one: use the Show Fonts menu. However, that menu item is grayed out in Mathematica version 11.0.1 on macOS Sierra. The following is a workaround for that bug. End Edit

To make the desired adjustments interactively, select the % in your source code, then go to the menu Format > Option Inspector. It will open a pane that shows all the things you can modify for the current selection. Among them is Formatting Options > Font Options > FontFamily which you can now adjust using the drop-down menu.

Once you press shift-enter, the label as you formatted it will be preserved because it's already wrapped in a StyleBox automatically, without you having to enter the code for it.

Thanks a lot, it's a very clear description :) – tablecircle Jul 14 '17 at 09:17 — tablecircle, Jul 14 '17 at 09:17
