Do you use "usetex"? If you do, the mathtext is rendered using latex, and latex renders mathtext in serif fonts. Darren
Hi, Thanks for all the replies! Of course it is not directly a bug. But awkward. This is how I was finally able to change alle fonts and the whole layout of the plot: fig_width_pt = 246.0 # Get this from LaTeX using \showthe\columnwidth inches_per_pt = 1.0/72.27 # Convert pt to inch golden_mean = (sqrt(5)-1.0)/2.0 # Aesthetic ratio fig_width = fig_width_pt*inches_per_pt # width in inches fig_height = fig_width*golden_mean # height in inches fig_size = [fig_width,fig_height] params = {'backend': 'ps','axes.labelsize': 10,'text.fontsize': 10,'legend.fontsize': 10,'text.usetex': True,'text.latex.preamble':["\usepackage{bm}","\usepackage{textcomp}"], 'figure.figsize': fig_size, 'font.family' : 'sans-serif', 'font.style': 'normal', 'font.weight':'normal',} rcParams.update(params) ....... ffont = {'family':'sans-serif','fontsize':10,'weight':'bold'} ax1=gca() ax1.set_xticklabels(ax1.get_xticks(),ffont) ax1.set_yticklabels(ax1.get_yticks(),ffont) subplots_adjust(top=1-.13) xticks(**ffont) yticks(**ffont) Best regards: Gerolf On Thu 27.Mar.08 14:54, Darren Dale wrote: > On Thursday 27 March 2008 01:27:28 pm Gerolf Ziegenhain wrote: > > More complete: > > > > I tried all permunations of backends.
