I was trying to get images in some vector format and was specifying linewidth as a string. Thanks to this thread, I have my images. However, some things I noticed were: (1) This error message only appeared when I tried to save as eps; not for pdf (my preference) or svg. (2) Shouldn't the exception or warning be raised when the plot call is made (for me it was bar(...)) ? (3) using pdf and svg with savefig raised no error. However, the resulting images were corrupted. Weirdly, in the case of pdf, the only pdf reader I tried not able to render the image correctly was adobe acrobat. Even the browser plugin for adobe could do it. In the case of svg, I opened the image in imagemagick but it did not look much like it should have. -- Try New Relic Now We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.

[Matplotlib-users] Possible bug with saving eps figure
Hi, this is not a big deal, but I think that there is a bug while
saving eps figures and passing the linewidth='2.5' as string instead
of float. The following reproduces the error I get here:
plt.plot([1,2,3], 'k', linewidth='2.5')
plt.savefig('teste.png') # Saves OK
# The following fails with linewidth='2.5', but passes with linewidth=2.5
# TypeError: float argument required, not str
plt.savefig('teste.eps')
plt.show() # show is OK for both cases.
matplotlib.__version__
Out[2]: '1.2.x'

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Possible bug with saving eps figure
That's not a bug. linewidth is required to be a float, rather than a
string. Python's typing is generally a little stricter than languages
such as JavaScript.
