Hello!
I'm struggeling when exporting figures to pdf using usetex=True:
When i run the following Code:
"""
Demo of a line plot on a polar axis.
"""
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.backends.backend_pgf import FigureCanvasPgf
import matplotlib as mpl
mpl.backend_bases.register_backend('pdf', FigureCanvasPgf)
from matplotlib.ticker import OldScalarFormatter, ScalarFormatter
with plt.rc_context({'text.usetex' : True,
'font.family' : 'Times New Roman',
'font.serif': 'Times New Roman', # --> no error when using Times New Roman
'mathtext.fontset' : 'custom',
'mathtext.cal' : 'serif:cursive',
'mathtext.rm' : 'serif',
'mathtext.tt' : 'monospace',
'mathtext.it' : 'serif:italic',
'mathtext.bf' : 'serif:bold',
'mathtext.sf' : 'sans',
'text.latex.unicode' : True,
'pgf.rcfonts' : True}):
r = np.arange(0, 3.0, 0.01)
theta = 2 * np.pi * r
r = r*1000000
#ax = plt.subplot(111, projection='polar')
ax = plt.subplot(111)
ax.plot(theta, r, color='b', linewidth=3)
ax.yaxis.major.formatter._useMathText = True
ax.xaxis.major.formatter._useMathText = True
ax.grid(True)
print(ax.get_xaxis().get_major_formatter())
#ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(OldScalarFormatter())
#ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(OldScalarFormatter())
#plt.title(r'Some text with latex in it $10_4 \times \theta = \Phi$')
plt.savefig(r'Test_text_embedded_on.pdf', papertype='None')
plt.show()
In the generated pdf Test_text_embedded_on.pdf the desired Times New Roman Font is not embedded, only the default CMR12-font is embedded.
I found out that it has something to do with the ScalarFormatter --> if I uncomment ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(OldScalarFormatter()) and ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(OldScalarFormatter()) the ticks changed (not desired) but in this case the TimesNewRoman font is embedded.
Is there a way to fix this to get TimesNewRoman in the Ticks?
My Setup:
Python 3.5
Matplotlib 1.5.1 --> installed with anaconda
Windows 10
