Cool, this seems to work :)
Now, I only have one issue:
If I set a text, for example via
ylabel(r"VCD$_{\sf strat}$ O$_{\sf 3}$ [DU]")
the subscript "strat" actually gets typeset in my OTF font, but the subset
"3" gets typeset in the standard math font (the fonts Cmr10 and Cmss10 get
embedded in the PDF file). This doesn't look nice, because I am using
MyriadPro, which is a sans-serif, while the CMR/CMSS fonts are serif fonts
...
Any ideas how to solve this?
Cheers!
Andreas.
