Hi All (esp. Darren), The attached patch adds unicode support for LaTeX. Given the recent discussion about adding preambles, I thought I'd run it past here first. Anyone opposed if I check this in? Note that I specifically added the rcParam text.latex.unicode to enable this and a default False value to turn this off by default. I hope this prevents breakage for folks who don't have the ucs and inputenc latex packages installed while allowing unicode for those of us that do. -Andrew

Would you add a commented out line to matplotlibrc.template, with some brief discussion if you think it is appropriate? Also, lets make it a policy that the custom preamble always appears after all other preambles in texmanager amd backend_ps. > > Note that I specifically added the rcParam text.latex.unicode to enable > > this and a default False value to turn this off by default.

I have never used unicode with latex, will you add a nugget to http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/UsingTex? Darren
Hi Darren, I've made the changes you requested and committed it. (I didn't realize that mpl-data/matplotlibrc was generated from the template -- I actually already placed a descriptive line of text in the overwritten file.) I'm attaching a file for the examples/ directory which I'm having trouble checking in. I'm rushing out the door for a weekend away at the moment, so if you can check this in, that'd be great, otherwise I'll try again when I'm back online. I think it might be an issue with the non-ASCII characters in the file. I'll also update the wiki page when I get back. -Andrew Darren Dale wrote: > Hi Andrew, > > On Thursday 17 May 2007 10:12:09 pm Andrew Straw wrote: >> OK, here's the patch! :) >> >> Andrew Straw wrote: >>> Hi All (esp.
