Hi,

I'm interested in fiddling around with the matplotlib source. Let's say we set 
up various things:

from matplotlib.figure import Figure()
from matplotlib.backends.backend_pdf import FigureCanvasPdf as FigureCanvas

fig = Figure()
canvas = FigureCanvas(fig)
ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1)
fig.savefig('asd.pdf', bbox_inches='tight')

I would like to know what exactly happens when bbox_inches='tight' is passed to 
savefig(). I've been searching in the figure.py source and nowhere can I see 
the bbox_inches='tight' keyword being tested for in the savefig() method. 
Having said that, all of the kwargs do get passed on to the 
canvas.print_figure() method, so I looked in the backend_pdf.py file but 
couldn't find a print_figure() method. Could someone point me in the right 
direction?

Regards,
-- Damon
