[Matplotlib-users] How to make figures transparent by default, leave foreground color to pdflatex?

2007-02-25 Thread Anand Patil
Hi all, Sorry about the steady stream of help requests. I haven't been able to figure out a couple of things: - How can I make my figures and axes transparent by default? - When I inserted some of my old pdf plots into a latex presentation, to my surprise their foreground color had changed from

After doing some investigation, I discovered that this problem is reproducible using sample programs such as axes_demo.py. Here are the steps I took: a) Run axes_demo.py b) Save the plot as eps file c) Start Word d) Insert the eps file e) Print I got a 2 page print: 1 for the plot, and 1 for
