Simson, Sorry to be addressing a side point, not your real questions, but your example shows up a bug in matplotlib.use, which I will fix shortly. There is an agg backend, and there is a pdf backend, but there is no agg.pdf. You are simply getting the agg backend, and when you save the figure you are using the pdf backend, which is fine. Only the cairo backend has "sub-backends" or versions, like "cairo.pdf" or "cairo.png" or "cairo.ps" or "cairo.svg".
