Alan -
You started a discussion about dpi on the figures.
Yet here you claim that 1pt = 1/72 inch.
Is that always the case?
And why? How does mpl figure that out, if there are also different dpi
settings?
The plot thickens...

New version is available now. Just select matplotlib component from Boa
pallete and plot any number of different plots as easy as with Pylab. See
runtime sample. My e-mail is [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you are interested, please,
write me. It costs $50. Igor V. Khromushin

Yes, I that's *by definition* always the case !
pt is a point - not a dot or a pixel !!!
Point is a unit of measurement used in typography that is

Based on the discussion for far,
I assume it works like this.
(figsize in inches) * dpi = (size in pixels)
So if you draw a line 72 points long,

Hi,
I'm trying to export a MAtplotlib figure which has some axes labels, such as
'coût'.
The problème is that the generated eps is corrupted because of these
accents. Is there a way to generate an acceptable eps file ?

Unicode in Python is tricky. It is explained in gory detail here:
http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/unicode
But to save you the trouble of reading the whole thing, unless you're an
i18n geek like me, here's my list of recommendations to (somewhat)
reliably get non-ASCII characters to work in
Some additional information : it does not work with the pdf backend and with
the svg one, the accents are corrupted (I tried to export utf8 encoded
labels).
I'm using pycrust, BTW. But I don't know how to change the default encoding
(the display is correct but not the saved image).

No problem with the png backend.
I tried with Latex for the accent, but it didn't work :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File input, line 1, in module
File
/home/brucher/local//lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py,
line 265, in draw
get_current_fig_manager().canvas.draw()
Can you provide an example of your code? Often, it is a matter of
configuring/using Python correctly to indicate accents. Is the problem
only with EPS or other backends as well?
Cheers,
Mike

Eric,
That did the trick. Two modules needed to have the backend specification
commented out.
Many thanks,

When using the PostScript backend, and plotting several lines with the same
call to plot (or when plotting a LineCollection), kwargs are applied to the
first line only, and not to every line.
Included is a minimal script that exhibits this problem. The saved figure shows
only one thick red
Included is a patch to change the behavior when legend() is called with
numpoints less than or equal to 0. Currently if one makes such a call, some
cryptic error messages are printed out and the plot is not generated.
The included patch produces a warning, and defaults to using numpoints = 4,
