The rcParam svg.embed_chars controls this behavior. I would assume it
is set differently on your Windows and Mac boxes.
When it is True, rather than outputting text blocks, it embeds the
characters as outlines. This means that the fonts do not have to be
installed just to view the SVG
Hi Mike,
Thanks for the tip. I tried it, but I get the following message:
Bad key svg.embed_chars on line 294 in
/Users/kghose/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc.
You probably need to get an updated matplotlibrc file from
http://matplotlib.sf.net/matplotlibrc or from the matplotlib source
distribution
Sorry. I mistyped. It's svg.embed_char_paths
Cheers,
Mike

Thanks, that worked!
Small note, the example matplotlibrc file on the website
(http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/matplotlibrc) as well as the one in the most
recent mac OS egg has svg.embed_chars.
Thanks

Yes. I'll fix that. Thanks.
