savefig.edgecolor not working

I figured it out. It is saving the outside edge as

I still don't understand where the transparency is coming from (unless
you are setting the alpha explicitly somewhere else). In the example
output I posted previously, the 4th entry in the image RGBAs is 1,
indicating that the alpha channel is 1, fully opaque.

I don't know where the transparency is coming from either. I don't know where I would set the alpha. Could it be in the .rc file?
Could it be the way Macs process png files.
If you like I can send a copy of the image
