Dear all, I just committed a small change that enables a user to register a custom backend that will be used with "savefig". For example,
import matplotlib.backend_bases from matplotlib.backends.backend_ps import FigureCanvasPS, RendererPS class RendererPSCustom(RendererPS): def draw_path(self, gc, path, transform, rgbFace=None): print "custom draw path" RendererPS.draw_path(self, gc, path, transform, rgbFace) class FigureCanvasPSCustom(FigureCanvasPS): _renderer_class = RendererPSCustom def print_eps_custom(self, outfile, *args, **kwargs): print "Using Custome backend" return self._print_ps(outfile, 'eps', *args, **kwargs) matplotlib.backend_bases.register_backend("eps_custom", FigureCanvasPSCustom) plt.plot([1,2,3]) plt.savefig("a.eps", format="eps_custom") # this will save the file using backend_ps_cmyk The api may need some cleanups or modifications, and any suggestion will be welcomed. Also committed is a some refactoring of ps backend but the change should be quite transparent.
