Re: [Matplotlib-users] [CJK] can create png but not eps: some successes

[David <ld...@gm...>]

Hello Mike, dear list,

I am now able to generate a ps (and png) file with CJK characters (eps 
does NOT work).

But my paths was rather surprising:
* I put SimHei back at first position in matplotlibrc:
	font.sans-serif: SimHei, ~
* the following I took out of my dea.py:
	#import matplotlib
	#matplotlib.use('GtkCairo')
* also, I have taken out:
	#rcParams['font.sans-serif'] = ['Adobe Song Std']
	#rcParams['font.sans-serif'] = ['SimHei']
Note here that when I take the 'Adobe Song' line out, no CJK gets 
produced. The 'SimHei' line makes no difference.

I can confirm that:
In [9]: matplotlib.get_backend()
Out[9]: 'GTKCairo'

And: no eps gets generated.

Basically I therefore followed the instructions here [Chinese]:

While eps generation continues not to work, my system is now, via 
ps2eps, productive.

Thanks for all your help, Mike!
