hi matt,i think i know maybe what you mean: if i save a matplotlib figure as eps and then use pstoedit for further processing with xfig, the ticklabels are somehow not correctly recognized as text.
as far as i understand, this is an issue with the mathtext capabilities. you can see what i do as workaround in
http://www.thamnos.de/repos/sebtools/sebtools.main/sebtools.py (class 'Fig', style 'f')unfortunately, i do not recall all details any more. if i was to look into that again, i would start playing with the text.usetex parameter. i would expect this to be enough to render linear axes correctly (although not as nicely). if you have logarithmic axes, it gets more complicated as something like 10^5 IS a mathtext. i've therefore made a class MyLogFormatterMathtext which outputs the labels very ugly but as normal text.
i hope that something along these lines can help you, i was using pstoedit a lot to see whether the text is recognized as text or not.
good luck, sebastian. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
