Comment (by ppurka):
It ''is'' about type 1 fonts, as far as I can tell. The first thing
publications tell is that type 3 fonts should not be present in the
document. Some of them silently fail when you try to upload your document
- the upload website just says that the upload didn't succeed.
As for references, I found these links earlier:

figures.html
* http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/Type-1-font-in-figures-needed-
td10294.html
* http://brainlogging.wordpress.com/2011/11/16/type-1-vs-3-fonts/
Unless someone knows that matplotlib has its own math renderer and doesn't
use latex by default for rendering math, it will not be clear that
something like `latex=True` will switch fonts to type 1 fonts.
