The patch seems to work - the MacOSX backend now displays the same font size as the other backends. Thanks! Thomas On 1 May 2009, at 14:06, Michael Droettboom wrote: > Michiel de Hoon provided a patch for this which I just applied to > the trunk. > > As I don't have a Mac, I can't test it -

Michiel de Hoon provided a patch for this which I just applied to the trunk. As I don't have a Mac, I can't test it -- any feedback is welcome. Mike Jae-Joon Lee wrote: > Thomas, > As John suggested before, please check if the size differences go away > if you use the same dpi, actually dpi=72.

Thomas, As John suggested before, please check if the size differences go away if you use the same dpi, actually dpi=72. After some quick look, it seems that the osx backend does not scale the font size correctly respecting the dpi. At line 124 of bacend_macosx.py, size = prop.get_siz

Hi Jae-Jong and John, Thanks for your replies! While experimenting with this to send screenshots, I realized that my default backend was set to MacOSX, not WXAgg. The WXAgg output to the screen actually agrees with the PNG output in terms of font sizes. But the font sizes differ between the

[Matplotlib-users] Font size and savefig

2009-04-28 Thread Thomas Robitaille
Hi, I am using the savefig method to save plots - however, I am finding that the font size is systematically larger in the saved images than in the WxAgg window. It seems that text is ~30% larger in PNG and PDF files compared to the WxAgg display (relative to the axes box size). This can b
