Hi, I'd like to open a high-quality image (600dpi) in matplotlib, add some plots and save it as a postscript file. It seems that whatever I do, the input image gets scaled down :-(
The same question was asked year ago. Has any progress been made since then? http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=200608311227.30594.dd55%40cornell.edu Looking in the code of matplotlib, there is a constant of 72dpi hardwired everywhere. For instance, backend_ps.py there is the line self.figure.dpi.set(72) # ignore the dpi kwarg Would rising of this value to 600 help? No offence to developers, I did not even try to understand the code, but using the number 72 instead of using a variable seems to be a bad programming practice to me.
