No worries. I meant no offense by the word "hack": sometimes the simplest approach is the best, and obviously it worked just fine for a long time. It seems newer versions of pdflatex are starting to care about the dpi metadata... Mike Gary Ruben wrote: > Just saw this thread and thought I sh

Just saw this thread and thought I should explain that this was indeed a hack by me which was aimed to do exactly what Michael said. I never thought there'd be any side effects from doing this - it's interesting that pdfLaTeX balks because it has never done so for me. Anyway, thanks Michael for

Ok, I have a better fix in SVN r8300. imsave now accepts a "dpi" kwarg (default of 100) to set the DPI metadata in the file. Mike Michael Droettboom wrote: > You're right. Thanks for the sanity check. > > What's happening is that when using imsave is used, it generates a > figure image with a

You're right. Thanks for the sanity check. What's happening is that when using imsave is used, it generates a figure image with a dpi of 1 (to force 1 output pixel per input pixel), but this is sort of a hack. Let me see if I can find a way around this hack. Mike Ryan May wrote: > On Thu, M

It looks like the conversion from dots-per-inch (matplotlib's internal representation) to dots-per-meter (the unit defined in the PNG standard) was bogus. This should be fixed in SVN r8298. Mike Nico Schlömer wrote: > Hi, > > today I bumped into a weird issue when including a PNG generated by

2010-05-06 Thread Nico Schlömer
Hi, today I bumped into a weird issue when including a PNG generated by imsave into a LaTeX document via \includegraphics. pdftex's very own Taco Hoekwater then noticed that the image is actually HUGE in what the specified dimensions concern
