It would also be nice if we could specify the axis background color to be
None as well (again, perhaps only useful when creating an EPS)...when using
the plot command.

Hello,
When using usetex=True and
 savefig(file, facecolor='w', edgecolor='w')
The behavior of the generated EPS file is more like:
 facecolor=None
 edgecolor='w'
That is, the image's facecolor is tranparent...taking on the background
color of the latex document---while the edgecolor is definitely white.
This seems inconsistent to me, and I was wondering if there was a quick
solution. I actually like that the facecolor is transparent (or
nonexistent)...and I would like the same to hold for the edgecolor. As of
now, I have an ugly white border around my image.
Also, it seems like there needs to be an extra keyword or option. Suppose
someone wanted a white facecolor in the (usetex=True) EPS file. It doesn't
seem like this is currently possible. It would be nice if I could specify:
savefig(file, facecolor=None, edgecolor=None)
Thoughts?
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\psframe*[linecolor=blue](-10in,-10in)(10in,10in)
\includegraphics{test}
from matplotlib import rc, rcParams
rc('text', usetex=True)
rc('ps', usedistiller='xpdf')
from pylab import *
subplot(111,axisbg='red')
plot(range(10))
savefig('test.eps', facecolor='white', edgecolor='white')
