[Matplotlib-users] Using non ascii characters

2008-01-21 Thread BL 
   Hi,

I would like to use non ascii characters in title and label but with my
current intallation it does not work properly.
There's no warning or error messages when I set a title with some non ascii
characters (I use iso-88599-1 characters, like é or à), but I get a empty
square instead of theses characters in the figure.

I'm using matplotlib-0.90.1.
Is there anything to configure to handle non ascii characters ?

Regards,

This probably depends on the backend you are using.  Which backend and 
on which platform are you having trouble with?  0.90.1 had a number of 
Unicode and non-ascii problems that 0.91.2 resolves.  You may want to 
try that.

Failing that, can you attach a small script that exhibits the problem? 
There may be all kinds of things going wrong, from the encoding of the 
source file, to an incorrect font etc. and an example would help us 
narrow it down.

Cheers,
Mike

I'm using a basic Debian Etch distribution.
I've attached a very simple file showing the problem. On my computer,
neither the title, nor the legend are displayed correctly, and I've got
square instead of each non ascii characters.

The attached script gives me the following informations :

matplotlib :  0.90.1
backend:  TkAgg
encoding   :  UTF-8

I will try to install a SVN version of matplotlib and see if this works
better.
#! /usr/bin/python
# -*-coding: utf-8-*-

from numpy import arange
import pylab as p
import matplotlib
import sys

print matplotlib : , matplotlib.__version__
print backend: , matplotlib.get_backend()
print encoding   : , sys.getfilesystemencoding()

x = arange(10)
y = x**2-x+4

p.plot(x, y, 'ro-', label=r'polynôme')
p.title(r'à é ï ù')
p.xlabel('x')
p.legend()
p.show()
