Hello everyone. I am used to plot data with gnuplot, so I can easily put the figures in a LaTeX document, using the epslatex terminal. For example:
file = "data.dat" set terminal epslatex set output "figure1.tex" plot file http://gnuplot-tricks.blogspot.com/2009/05/gnuplot-tricks-many-say-that-it-is.html#epslatex-terminal http://www.gnuplotting.org/introduction/output-terminals/#epslatex This way, two files are generated: one .eps file, which contains the graphics, and one .tex file, which contains the text. The great advantage of this is that text is rendered by LaTeX, so the tics, labels, etc. have the same font as the rest of the document (using the appropiate packages). Now I am starting with matplotlib, which has a much nicer API, is more scriptable and, well, is Python. But, even though I can make matplotlib render the text with LaTeX, it gets embedded into the image and I cannot achieve the same advantages I had with gnuplot. Is there any way I can emulate the epslatex terminal in matplotlib?
