Sigh. I'm sure it's as frustrating for you as it is for me.
Thanks,

I see you sent this just a few minutes ago - let's try to figure this
out interactively via IRC on #matplotlib channel on freenode. If you
don't have an IRC client handy, you can just use this web-based one.

Paul,
Yes, it was a nice, long, relaxing visit. I go to the dental school at the
health sciences university; costs ~ 1/3rd less than a private dentist,
top-notch care, and the latest techniques when necessary.
I see you sent this just a few minutes ago - let's try to figure this out
interactively via IRC on #matplotlib channel on freenode. If you don't
have an IRC client handy, you can just use this web-based one.

Oops! That was a while ago. I'm rather overwhelmed with client work, but
will see if I still have an IRC tool available on the system; I removed
bitchx a while ago.

Paul, et al.:
Changing "underline " to "underline" fixed the problem. Now I have some
legacy database connection issues since pysqlite3 is now included with
python. Ergo, no more matplotlib complaints! (I suppose that removing the
kidsd.* font had nothing to do with it, but I don't use that font in any
case.)
Thanks very much,

Awesome! glad we finally got to the bottom of it. For the record - in
case others start seeing this error: "Found an unknown keyword in AFM
header (was Underline)", when the afm file in question splits up the
UnderlinePosition to be two words with a space between them, here's
the patch to fix that problem.
diff --git a/lib/matplotlib/afm.py b/lib/matplotlib/afm.py
index bb51634..127e63d 100644
--- a/lib/matplotlib/afm.py
+++ b/lib/matplotlib/afm.py
@@ -132,6 +132,7 @@ def _parse_header(fh):
line = fh.readline()
if not line: break
line = line.rstrip()
+ line = line.replace("Underline ", "Underline")
if line.startswith('Comment'): continue
lst = line.split( ' ', 1 )
#print '%-s\t%-d line :: %-s' % ( fh.name, len(lst), line )
I won't commit this to trunk, because it doesn't seem like anyone else
has run into this before - so maybe there are very few afm files out
there using this *incorrect*, as far as I can ascertain, version of
the AFM headers
best,
