Apologies for being ignorant here.
No worries, here's a concrete example for selecting Helvetica (and commented
out, Palatino) as default fonts:
from matplotlib.pylab import *
from numpy import *
#rc('font',**dict(family='serif',serif='Palatino'))
rc('font',**{'family':'sans-serif','sans-serif':'Helvetica'})
rc('text', usetex=True)
Note that I've had problems with font-changes being ignored by latex in some
version of matplotlib, but not the latest 0.9 -- if in doubt
``rm -r ~/.matplotlib/*cache`` and see whether that fixes things.
I've added these two things to
<http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/UsingTex>
Hope that's OK, otherwise please revert.

You should also make your rc changes before importing pylab. That might be
considered a bug, and would take some work to fix.

Would you mind changing it to use the rcParams dict instead of the rc
function? It is clearer that way.
