I think I'm using MPL .99.1 (is there a command to check?) on Windows XP.
Thanks for the debug tip, I don't think posting the whole thing is necessary
because this line seems to be the problem:
findfont: Could not match
It would still be helpful to see the whole listing (send it to me
offlist) because that will indicate where fonts are being looked for,
and hopefully *why* this is failing.
It should search for fonts in the standard Windows location (usually
C:\Windows\Fonts). Have you tried setting
Ah ok, I've sent it on to you. I've just tried setting font.family to New
Century Schoolbook directly but it generates something similar. I'm
starting to think part of the problem is that I've set the home directory to
U: somehow, U: being a shared drive which doesn't have a font directory...

After an off-list discussion, we realized there were a couple of fonts
on Alex' system with the names Century Schoolbook and New Century
Schoolbook LT Std. Using one of those names instead resolved the problem.

Can you set verbose.level to debug-annoying in your matplotlibrc
file, and then send the output to this list. That may help us track
down where the font lookup is failing. Also, what platform and version
of matplotlib are you running?

I've been looking for an elegant way to change, on a per-plot basis,
the font attributes of my x and y tick labels. The best I've come up
with is getting a list/collection of tick labels and looping through
it to change the font attributes. Is there an easy one or two line
way to do it?
I would like to know how to change the font for the legend.
The usual method of:
yticklabels = getp(gca(), 'yticklabels')
setp(yticklabels, color='black', fontsize=6)
Does not seem to work for legend.
And when I try:
legend( ... prop=FontProperties('smaller') )
