Mike -- thanks for your response. I thought I had tried this and it didn't work. I guess I didn't!!!! I just tried the following equivalent approach:
ML.rcParams['font.family'] = 'serif' ML.rcParams['font.serif'] = ['Cambria Math'] + ML.rcParams['font.serif'] and it worked like a charm. Thanks again. ---- Michael Droettboom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You shouldn't edit rcsetup.py directly -- that is part of the matplotlib > source code.
