Yeah -- the print_* format methods should probably be made private. They don't properly save/restore state -- that is all done in one place in the higher-level function "print_figure".
I would suggest: canvas.print_figure(string_io, format='svg') I'll go ahead and make these functions private to avoid confusion -- probably on the trunk only, though, to avoid breaking things for cases where it's currently working "by accident" (i.e. in a non-interactive setting).
