It's a known bug, fixed since 1.1.1.

https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/1211

BTW: If you're running the Debian package, how come the version is a release candidate? (1.1.1rc2)

Hello,

For some reason, my matplotlib isn't able to print percent signs ('%')
properly:

[1] inspiron:~/tmp# cat mplbug.py

import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

print matplotlib.__version__
plt.plot(np.arange(10), np.arange(10)**2)
plt.xlabel('Percent [%]')
plt.savefig('mplbug.pdf')

[0] inspiron:~/tmp# python mplbug.py
1.1.1rc2

I have attached the resulting PDF. For some reason, the slash in the
percent sign becomes a triangle that partially covers the upper left
circle.

Known bug? Any workarounds that don't require upgrading (I'd like to
stick with the Debian package)?


Thanks,
