For example, in astronomy, a lot of people will 'publish' their paper to Arxiv before it is accepted into a journal. Arxiv is accessible by the general public and a little digging around will reveal that you can download the actual Latex source for the paper. This includes all of the figures. I

That citation should be *much* more prominent on the matplotlib homepage. I regret to say that I was unaware of that paper I should have cited in my last paper which made heavy use of matplotlib generated plots with lots of customizations. Next time I'll be sure to include the proper citation! I t
