The \varphi greek letter does is not recognized by igortex. Does somebody know a way to get this character?
How about using the unicode character: φ
Or is that somehow not possible in your use case?

I want to use this character within a longer Latex expression, that's why I need the Latex version of it.

Are you on macOS or Windows? If the former, I suggest using LaTeXiT https://www.chachatelier.fr/latexit/. Create the expression. Copy it as a PNG. Paste it into a draw layer.

You can use regular unicode characters in a LaTeX expression in Igor. Just copy it from the Character Map or Special Characters dialog.

I was wrong about regular unicode characters *in* a LaTeX (WMTEX) expression; they aren't recognized.
Igor 9.02B01's next Nightly Build and release will recognize all of the \var this and that Greek characters.
Whether the fonts employed actually *have* those glyphs is another matter.
