Labeled Plot not a Plot?

My latest hassle arises, so far as I can tell, from doing the following:

   myPlot = <An ordinary plot>;

   myLabeledPlot = Labeled[myPlot, "\nMy label string\n", {{Top,Left}}];

   Print[myLabeled Plot];

   Export["my_labeled_plot.pdf", myLabeledPlot];

and then importing my_labeled_plot.pdf into a Tex source file using 
pdftex.

The output of the Print[myLabeledPlot] looks fine: just what I want, and 
all in one cell.

But when the exported my_labeled_plot.pdf file is either viewed in the 
TeX'd file or just opened in Acrobat, the label string at top left 
changes to

   "\nMy label string\n"

*including* the quotes.  (All the text labels and Epilog->Text stuff on 
the plot itself are just fine.)

What do I need to do?  (I like using Labeled, and would rather not have 
to give it up.)
