Hi all
I am trying to include vector graphics in the form of either PDF or EPS in a matplotlib figure. At first I thought it would be straight forward, but all my googling have been in vain so far.
Eventually I found this post:
http://www.mailinglistarchive.com/html/matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net/2009-09/msg00009.html
stating that it is not possible to include EPS in matplotlib figures. Is this still the case? Or might there be some work around?
Cheers,
Per

This is still the case; there has been no change since Mike's message, and there is not likely to be any. Importing from pdf or eps would be very difficult. Few applications even attempt it.

That said, PostScript drawing on top of an EPS is naturally
quite possible. See e.g. PyX for a pure Python approach.
