No, it is a bug.

Try using raw strings. If that doesn't work, try submitting a short example.

I have an old fedora 11 system. When I try to use latex math (e.g., $\mu=2$), 
it gives no error, but seems to produce gibberish (just ordinary ascii chars) in 
my pdf output.
Any ideas how to debug?
I found that a trivial 'hello_world.tex' could run through pdflatex OK.

While I realize that you are not asking for the technical question of "how
to do this", but rather "how to do this so that it looks right", I want to
add some links to some examples on how to technically do annotations in case
anyone stumbles across this question while searching.

There have been some bugs fixed with bbox_inches='tight', but I couldn't
remember if they happened after or before the v1.0.1 release. My guess is
that it happened after.
I am glad the other function worked for you.

How about:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x_sqr = 42.42
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(range(5))
ax.text(3, 2, r'x$^2$ = %.2f' % x_sqr)
plt.show()
Cheers,
Scott

Where did you change in the code?

Hello all,
I have this code: http://dpaste.com/543369/ (part that generates the chart)
. So i need to show a result in the graph, i have the line 69 (variable
x_sqr) in code, i need to show tthe result of variable in the graph. How can
i do this?
Thank you
Waléria

I have several line graphs on a single plot. I'd like to indicate what is the 
mean of each of them (they are showing cumulative distributions).
Each is a different color.
I tried putting 'mean=xxx' into the legend. That works, but I think it's 
confusing. The legend normally displays independent variables, not results.
I put vertical lines and then text, vertically, just below the x-axis giving the 
mean values. Not very clear.
This is not really a technical question, but one of presentation style. How to 
convey this information?

All,
I have stumbled upon a (for me) unexpected behaviour of axvspan().
import matplotlib.pylab as plt
from numpy import *
x = arange(1000)
y = 0.2*sin(0.02*x)
ax = plt.axes()
plt.axvspan(250, 400, facecolor='g', alpha=0.2)
plt.plot(x,y)
plt.show()
The displayed y range is -0.2 to 1, while from the sine amplitude I 
would have expected -0.2 to 0.2. The expected y range can be obtained by 
omitting the axvspan() call and also if it is called *after* plot().
Is this the desired behaviour, especially in view of the dependence on 
the call order?
__version__ is 1.1.0
Cheers,
Joachim

Attached is a modified version of Tony's script.
 * no drawing is necessary
 * support subplots that span multiple rows/columns
Please test it and let me know of any problem.
I'm planning to push these functionality into matplolib after some
refactoring (e.g., it would be good to have pyplot.tight_layout).
Regards,
-JJ

Hej,
I tried your suggestion like:
plt.figure()
plt.figtext(0.01, 0.5,r'$F(x)=p*\frac{1}{s1\sqrt{2\pi}}*e^{-\frac{1}{2}*(\frac{x-m}{s1})}+(1-p)*\frac{1}{s1\sqrt{2\pi}}*e^{-\frac{1}{2}*(\frac{x-m}{s1})}$', fontsize=26)
#plt.show()
plt.savefig("testplot.eps", bbox_inches='tight')
but get following error:
 plt.savefig("testplot.eps", bbox_inches='tight')
 File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 363, in savefig
 return fig.savefig(*args, **kwargs)
 File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 1084, in savefig
 self.canvas.print_figure(*args, **kwargs)
 File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/backend_bases.py", line 1891, in print_figure
 bbox_inches = self.figure.get_tightbbox(renderer)
 File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 1212, in get_tightbbox
 _bbox = Bbox.union([b for b in bb if b.width!=0 or b.height!=0])
 File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/transforms.py", line 675, in union
 assert(len(bboxes))
AssertionError
For your information:
I work with python 2.6.6 and matplotlib 1.0.1 on Mac OS X 10.6.6

In that case, the way

> epstopdf mathtext.eps --outfile=mathtext.temp.pdf
> pdfcrop --margins '15 2 15 2' --clip mathtext.temp.pdf
> mathtext.cropped.pdf
> pdftops mathtext.cropped.pdf mathtext.cropped.eps
> 
> You can adjust margins to your tastes, and the names of the files are
> fairly
> arbitrary.
