Hi to all,
I'm new to Matplotlib and I noticed a problem concerning the placement of tick
labels when saving a figure to a postscript file. I'm using windows XP with
Matplotlib 0.90.0 and the default setup and backend. I also use ipython with
the -pylab option.
So, I type plot((1,2,3)) in the shell and I get a figure similar to that
presented in the user guide. Then I save it as an eps file and when I open the
resulting file (using GSVIEW) I notice that the labels on the y axis are not
properly aligned. That is, the 1.5 and 2.5 labels are almost stuck to the y
axis, while the 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 labels are farther. Furthermore, when I add a
grid to my plot and save it to eps, I notice that the grid lines are not well
aligned with the ticks. This problem seems to occur both with ps, eps and pdf
files. Does anybody know what's the problem here?
Thank you
Maybe you could post your file? Mine looks ok, see attached.

A close look at that attached file shows that the grid lines are not quite lined up with the tics -- by about a line width.
I suspect that the grid code and tic code are rounding differently or something.

I think the new version of matplotlib corrected the bug.
I have the problem with version 0.91.2, and there is no problem with the
version 0.98.3.
