Re: [Matplotlib-users] \mathbb test doesn't render properly

So it turns out that text.latex.preamble : '\usepackage{amsmath},\usepackage{amssymb}' is not valid, but text.latex.preamble : \usepackage{amsmath},\usepackage{amssymb} is valid. Everything works fine now. Regards, -- Damon -- Damon McDougall Mathematics Institute Univ

Actually I'm wrong, the error says 'Missing \begin{document}'. Sorry for the spam. Regards, -- Damon -- Damon McDougall Mathematics Institute University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7AL d.mcdoug...@warwick.ac.uk On 2 Aug 2010, at 17:41, Damon McDougall wrote: > After some

Re: [Matplotlib-users] \mathbb test doesn't render properly

After some playing I have discovered that putting maplotlib.rc('text.latex', preamble='\usepackage{amsmath},\usepackage{amssymb}') fixes the issue of text rendering. However, when putting this value in the ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc file, I get the same error saying that \mathbb is undefined. An

You could use pylab.ylabel(r"Profit (\verb+$+)") or use another font. Eduardo On 2 Aug 2010, at 15:50, Benjamin Root wrote: > Hmmm, if I comment out the .savefig() and use the show(), I get no errors. > But I get the same key error if I try to save it as a pdf. However, if I > save it as

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Dollar sign in TeX plot label

Hmmm, if I comment out the .savefig() and use the show(), I get no errors. But I get the same key error if I try to save it as a pdf. However, if I save it as a png, I get no problems. Maybe it is a problem with the pdf backend? Ben Root On Mon, Aug 2, 2010 at 9:29 AM, Richard Lincoln wrote: >

[Matplotlib-users] Dollar sign in TeX plot label

I am having trouble creating a plot using TeX which has a $ sign in one of the axis labels. If I run: import matplotlib matplotlib.rc('font', **{'family': 'serif', 'serif': ['Computer Modern Roman']}) matplotlib.rc('text', usetex=True) import pylab pylab.figure() pylab.plot([0.0, 1.0]) pylab.y
