[Matplotlib-users] TkAfgg window handling bug on MaxOSX

Hello, I would like to create PDFs of plot using the Helvetica font in the Light variant. In my old Mac OS X installation I somehow achieved this, I don't remember exactly how, but probably with an ugly hack that involved making matplotlib aware only of this variant of the font. In my new Mac OS
