Hi Brandon,
I notice that this is cross-posted on StackOverflow (
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13132194/type-1-fonts-with-log-graphs).
Personally, I have no problem with cross posting, but to save two people
having to answer the same question, I would make sure it was explicit that

There are a couple of alternative formatters for log scaling that don't
require mathtext.
You can do:
from matplotlib.tickers import LogFormatter, LogFormatterExponent
...
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(LogFormatter())
# or LogFormatterExponent(), which is just the exponent
To clarify the font
Hi Phil,
Next time I'll be more explicit. I added the question to SA after I tried

logarithmic Y axes.
