Hey Chris,
I had a similar problem. I saved the transparent objects, so the
polygons in your case, as a high-resolution png and the axes,
dots, lines, text objects and everything else to an eps. Finally,
I just layed them on top of each other in Illustrator and saved as
eps, which produced a decent result. But this was only a
work-around as well. They might be better options...
Cheers

Hi,
I have a semitransparent plot that I rather like:
I'd like to publish something like this in a journal which
requires EPS figures. Unfortunately, EPS doesn't support
transparency.
How hard would it be to coax matplotlib (or another tool)
to convert this semi-transparent figure into a
non-semitransparent figure that looks the same? It would
consist of more polygons, each of which has a constant RGB
value in the transparent figure.
I don't want to rasterize the lines, because I like zooming
absurdly far into plots, and having them stay crisp.
Cheers,
Chris
