I have rebulit from SVN. It turns out that my problem only happens
with really large fonts. I am using Darren's new font size
specification with font.size = 18 or 24 and
everything else set to medium or large:
axes.titlesize : large # fontsize of the axes title
axes.labelsize : medium # fontsize of the x any y labels
xtick.labelsize : medium # fontsize of the tick labels
ytick.labelsize : medium # fontsize of the tick labels
legend.fontsize : medium
(I really like that new size scheme Darren.)
with font.size = 18, things are o.k. with 24, they are clipped on the
screen, in the pdf, and even a little in the png.
This may be closely related to what Steve just posted.

The problem is in both. I will build from svn and see what happens.

I think you will get better results by manually positioning your axes in the
figure window. MPL only knows to fill the specified figure window with the
gray background, but since your text runs over, it causes problems.

Following John's advice to Steve in the sister thread, I was able to
get really nice results by tweaking figure.subplot.bottom and .left:
font.size : 24.0
figure.subplot.left : 0.15 # the left side of the subplots of the figure
figure.subplot.right : 0.925 # the right side of the subplots of the figure
figure.subplot.bottom : 0.15 # the bottom of the subplots of the figure
figure.subplot.top : 0.925 # the top of the subplots of the figure
My rc file is attached as a starting point for people who like large
fonts (for when you have to shrink your figures into small places).
