Re: [Matplotlib-users] font always the same in PNG
There are at least a couple of fishy things here. It doesn't seem to find the Vera fonts that matplotlib installs in mpl-data. Did you remove them, or perhaps the Ubuntu or Debian packagers removed them? Then at least the default font would be correct (and not cmr10.ttf, which is a very bad choice since it uses a TeX encoding). As for why it is not picking up FreeSans like you request, my best guess is that the default properties to not align correctly with it. This is a major shortcoming of the font looking mechanism in 0.90 that was addressed in 0.91. There is a possible workaround that is somewhat painful. If you run the following command in a shell, you should see all of the details about the given font: > fc-match -v FreeSans Pattern has 27 elts (size 32) family: "Bitstream Vera Sans"(s) familylang: "en"(s) style: "Roman"(s) stylelang: "en"(s) slant: 0(i)(s) weight: 80(i)(s) width: 100(i)(s) size: 12(f)(s) pixelsize: 12.5(f)(s) foundry: "bitstream"(s) hintstyle: 1(i)(w) hinting: FcTrue(w) verticallayout: FcFalse(s) autohint: FcFalse(s) globaladvance: FcTrue(s) file: "/home/mdroe/.fonts/Vera.ttf"(s) etc... (I don't have FreeSans, so the above is for the next best match on my machine, Vera Sans). Now, if you specify the font as specifically as possible, you may get it to grab your font: rc('font',**{'family':'sans-serif','sans-serif':['FreeSans'],'weight':80, 'style':'Roman'}) (The above will need to be replaced with values for FreeSans, of course). Let me know if that helps.

[Matplotlib-users] ImportError: cannot import name rcParams
Hi, I'm getting the following error when trying to create a plot with matplotlib. I am using matplotlib-0.91.2 on CentOS 4 with python 2.3. We are running it with mod_python and Apache in a web service configuration. File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/matplotlib-0.91.2_r0-py2.3-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/dates.py", line 88, in ? import matplotlib.ticker as ticker File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/matplotlib-0.91.2_r0-py2.3-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/ticker.py", line 116, in ? from matplotlib import verbose, rcParams ImportError: cannot import name rcParams This error has only appeared since we started using Apache 2.2 instead of 2.0. I can do the import just fine from the command line in a python 2.3 shell. Any ideas?

My guess is that somewhere on your system you have an old matplotlib installed that had the namespace package declared, and this is fouling up your import.

I'd love it if Apple provided this stuff. Are they static libs? What versions do they ship them with -- I don't have OS-X 10.5, and I don't think I have them -- maybe I need to update XCode. freetype comes with X11, which is optional (though installed by default on 10.5). Also, I need libjpeg for PIL, but I guess that's not an OS-X issue. Here's the goal: Be able to easily build and distribute binaries of MPL (and other packages that require require similar libs). These binaries should: (1) Run on any OS-X 10.4+ system (10.3.9 would be nice too) with python.org's 2.5 framework build. (2) Allow packaging up with py2app, to get packages that will run on any 10.4+ system. As far as I know, the only way to do that now is to statically link against universal builds of all the dependencies that Apple does not provide on a stock 10.4 system. The problem is that there doesn't seem to be any standard source of Universal binaries for any of these libs (and the extra build flags required haven't made it into the source of the host projects). Also, it seems a bit silly to have a whole bunch of different packages all working hard to bundle in the same libs. I just built PIL against William's Frameworks, and it was oh so easy -- this after spending quite a few hours trying (and not finishing) getting the required libs built as Universal. We can only use Apple's libs if: They provide static Universal versions or The dynamic libs are there on All 10.4+ OS-X boxes. Maybe we can use more Apple libs for 10.5 only builds.

[Matplotlib-users] markeredgewidth and pdf
Hi List, With mpl 0.91.2, the markeredgewidth property does not seem to have an effect when using the pdf backend (seems to always be 1, regardless of what I set it to, and it seems to be fine with other backends).
