How do you place text in same position of 12 subplots?

I am trying to place some text in the same position of 12 subplots (4x3). How can this be done? I have googled with no luck :(
Thanks

Suppose RelX and RelY are the relative position at which you want to plot the text, 0 to 1 each, starting from bottom left corner of the inside of the axis. Then, for any one plot,
DataX = interp1( [0 1], xlim(), RelX );
DataY = interp1( [0 1], ylim(), RelY );
text(DataX, DataY, 'Your String')
What's wrong with the text() function?

text() always uses data coordinates, so if the data ranges are not the same it becomes trickier to place things in the same position.
When I use text() the placement of the text changes with every subplot which is a scatter-plot in this case. I am trying to make the position absolute (e.g. keep all text in the top-left of each subplot) but I dont know how.
I was thinking that you would have the axes the same every time, like you had called xlim() and ylim().
