You can set the rcParam "ps.useafm" to True, which will use the built-in
Postscript fonts (and not embed any in the file), or set "ps.fonttype"
to "42" which will embed the complete Truetype font in the file.

All,
I am wondering if anyone knows of a working example that yields
a postscript figure editable in Adobe Illustrator; that is, the
characters are editable as characters.
I have only been able to get drawn fonts and would love to have a test
case that is known to work.
My environment is:
python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 11 2010, 15:25:14)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5659)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import matplotlib
matplotlib.__version__
'1.0.0'
matplotlib.__file__
'/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.pyc'
my rc file is:
backend : TkAgg # the default backend
interactive : True
ps.usedistiller : xpdf
I can produce postscript fonts outside python, say in IDL.
I can produce postscript fonts in python using the psg package, but
not matplotlib.
In all the examples at http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/ I did not
find anything that
explicitly addresses this issue.
Thanks to anyone who answers with a test case.

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the
two and get a better understanding.
