Hi, there is no output from latex produced as it can't find the file!
But here is the verbose error output (my python file is called tex.py, the content is listed in my last message): D:\temp\py_plotlib>tex.py --verbose-debug-annoying matplotlib data path D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87. 3-py2.4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data $HOME=C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070 CONFIGDIR=C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib loaded rc file D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2. 4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\matplotlibrc matplotlib version 0.87.3 verbose.level debug-annoying interactive is False platform is win32 loaded modules: ['_bisect', 'distutils', 'random', 'datetime', 'matplotlib.tempf ile', 'distutils.sysconfig', 'pytz.datetime', 'distutils.dep_util', 'tempfile', 'imp', 'zipimport', 'string', 'matplotlib.__future__', 'pytz.tzinfo', 'distutils .re', 'bisect', 'signal', 'matplotlib.pytz', 'distutils.log', 'locale', 'encodin gs', 'dateutil', 'matplotlib.warnings', 'matplotlib.sys', 're', 'ntpath', 'new', 'math', 'UserDict', 'distutils.os', 'matplotlib', 'codecs', 'md5', '_locale', ' matplotlib.os', 'thread', 'sre', 'pkg_resources', 'itertools', 'distutils.spawn' , 'distutils.sys', 'os', '__future__', '_sre', '__builtin__', 'matplotlib.re', ' distutils.util', 'distutils.string', 'matplotlib.datetime', 'errno', 'binascii', 'sre_constants', 'matplotlib.md5', 'types', 'pytz.sys', '_codecs', 'encodings.c p1252', 'pytz', 'matplotlib.dateutil', 'encodings.aliases', 'exceptions', 'sre_p arse', 'pytz.bisect', 'distutils.distutils', 'copy_reg', 'sre_compile', '_random ', 'site', '__main__', 'shutil', 'strop', 'encodings.codecs', 'encodings.excepti ons', 'nt', 'pytz.sets', 'stat', 'matplotlib.toolkits', 'warnings', 'encodings.t ypes', 'time', 'sys', 'os.path', 'matplotlib.distutils', 'distutils.errors', 'li necache', 'matplotlib.shutil', 'sets'] numerix Numeric 24.2 font search path ['D:\\Programme\\Python2.4.3\\lib\\site-packages\\matplotlib-0. 87.3-py2.4-win32.egg\\matplotlib\\mpl-data'] trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\VeraIt.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\VeraMoIt.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\cmsy10.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\VeraMono.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\VeraBI.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\VeraSe.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\VeraMoBI.ttf trying fontname D:\Programme\Python2.4.3\lib\site-packages\matplotlib-0.87.3-py2 .4-win32.egg\matplotlib\mpl-data\Vera.ttf loaded ttfcache file C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\ttffont.cach e backend TkAgg version 8.4 FigureCanvasAgg.print_figure FigureCanvasAgg.draw RendererAgg.__init__ RendererAgg.__init__ width=800.0, height=600.0 RendererAgg.__init__ _RendererAgg done RendererAgg.__init__ done RendererAgg._get_agg_font findfont failed Lucida Grande findfont found Verdana, normal, normal 500, normal, 12.0 findfont returning c:\windows\fonts\verdana.ttf cd c:\docume~1\s0167070\locals~1\temp; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "3bb1bc571 00b0c65915bdda3a1f60dae.tex" Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\temp\py_plotlib\tex.py", line 16, in ?
