Hi all,
I’m new to Python in general and Matplotlib in particular.
I’m trying to create publication quality plots for inclusion
in LaTeX papers and presentations and have some problems
to get the fonts right.
My matplotlibrc contains the following lines
font.family : serif
font.serif : Times, Palatino, New Century Schoolbook, Bookman, Computer Modern Roman
font.sans-serif : Helvetica, Avant Garde, Computer Modern Sans serif
font.cursive
: Zapf Chancery
font.monospace : Courier, Computer Modern Typewriter
and my Python script contains the following lines
params = {‘backend’: ‘ps’,
'axes.labelsize
': 12,
‘text.fontsize’: 12,
‘xtick.labelsize’: 10,
‘ytick.labelsize’: 10,
‘text.usetex’: True,
‘figure.figsize’: fig_size}
rcParams.update(params)
I run what I believe is a standard openSUSE 10.2 installation of tetex and python, including matplotlib.
Still, fonts in my matplotlib plot are different from the ones used in my LaTeX document. Also, strangely
psfrag does not seem to work? Nothing ever gets replaced in my plot!
Can someone please help me out, what am I doing wrong?
Best regards,
Johan
Please make sure that the external dependencies are installed and properly
configured, see http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/UsingTex. If that
doesn't help, try setting your verbose.level to "debug", write as simple a
script as possible that reproduces the problem, and post again, along with
the output and perhaps the figure.

This is admittedly a stupid question, but just to be sure, I don't see
usetex: True
in your post.

Hi, and thanks for your answer.
I got the following output from running my script with the --verbose-helpful flag:

Definitely looks like some missing fonts, does anyone known what I have to do?
