Re: [Matplotlib-users] EPS files with LaTeX are invalid

I tried to take a look but, pstopdf in my linux box works okay (it converted test_tex_r8216.eps fine also) and I'm afraid that I may not be able to track this down. Just in case, can you check if using a different distiller makes any difference? I believe you're using a ghostscript (or none

It seems that removing 'restore' on line 1073 of the test_tex_r8216.eps file fixes the problem, although I don't understand postscript well enough to understand why that is. Thomas On Apr 2, 2010, at 9:30 AM, Michael Droettboom wrote: Can you provide us with the EPS file? What version of

I just had a quick look, but while extra restore could be a problem, the erroneous one may not be the one at line 1073, but the one at line 1066. I believe that the restore at 1073 is written by pstoeps function in backend_ps.py, and this function did write a matching save at line 11. Regards,

At least on my Linux box with gs 7.07, I have to use epstopdf (not pstopdf) to convert an eps file to a pdf. ps2pdf does work for both .ps and .eps files however. It looks like the 0.99.1.1 file is not in fact an .eps file, but a .ps file, (it certainly hasn't had the ps2eps function run on

I just tried running epstopdf, and this does work correctly, so maybe now the only issue is that Preview.app on mac always uses pstopdf, even for eps files? (which then is not a matplotlib issue) I also checked that giving the file the extension '.ps' produces a ps file, and that does open

Hello, I upgraded to the latest svn version of matplotlib today, and found that eps files produced with the system latex now seem to be invalid. For example, if I run the following script import matplotlib matplotlib.use('Agg') import matplotlib.pyplot as mpl mpl.rc('text', usetex=False) fig
