I couldn't get that one to work I sure can't see any difference in the tick labels, at least (didn't try it for manually-instantiated text).

Do: import matplotlib.font_manager fm = matplotlib.font_manager.FontManager() If fm.ttfdict doesn't list a bunch of TrueType fonts that you think should be listed, delete ~/.matplotlib/ttffont.cache , which will cause it to be rebuilt the next time you import matplotlib. Then try: import matplotlib.text t = matplotlib.text.Text( 'alskdjfalksdj' ) t.get_fontname() p = t.get_font_properties() p.get_name() If this last statement returns the first element of matplotlib.rcParams[ 'font.sans-serif' ] then I would think that everything is working like it ought to. If you get something like 'vera' at some point, then the absolute-last fallback font is being used (fm.defaultFont). Contrary to the comments in the default matplotlibrc, it seems that font.size does not set the fontsize for axis labels and ticks; you have to set [xy]tick.labelsize and axes.labelsize explicitly.
