hello, I am creating a "big" drawing ( figure(figsize=(16,20)) ), and when I try to save it in eps/ps form, it mishandle the overall size and only save a portion of the drawing. Saving in png or jpg works fine though. Any idea? Thanks, Johann |

It doesnt matter whether I save an eps, png, or jpg. Also, make sure your postscript viewer is not truncating the page due to an inappropriate page size setting. Darren |

Well, matplotlib starts with a canvas bigger than my screen (vertically only) but in the end it seems to resize it so everything fits in. I can see the whole drawing and the bottom toolbar. Again, saving in png or jpg works perfectly.... and of course I checked that gv was not cutting the graph when displaying it. I just tried to use GTK as a backend, and ipython tells me that there are "non implemented" errors on my script.... I attach it here. thanks!

I was having the same problem, but the recent xpdf thread pointed me to a/the solution. I was able to successfully run your script by outputting as eps instead of ps (which produced truncated output, as you were experiencing).

hi there, out of idea I decided to download gsview and try to open my eps file with it. It still showed it truncated but this time gsview has resizing capabilities, and I could actually reformat the plot so that it shows the whole figure and then save it. Given the fact that Matthew could not reproduce my issue and noticed that the ps figure was looking slightly different, I have the feeling that somehow ghostscript is not behaving correctly on my system, though I have no clue why or how. Is anyone expert in these matters around? thanks a lot, Johann Matthew Auger wrote: > I was having the same problem, but the recent xpdf thread pointed me > to a/the solution.

Hi Johann, Just make sure you are using the same version (GPL version 8.54?) as the others who are not having problems. That advice is about the best I can do. This mailing list is not for ghostscript support.

I am closing the issue I had with ghostscript : I just built in /usr/local ghostscript 8.56 and now saving in eps file does not truncate the figure anymore. Thanks to Darren for pointing out that the FC5 version of ghostscript is way old.... And it looks like the FC7 version is as old !! Probably a licensing issue. Anyway, thanks.

It's not a licensing issue; many linux distributions ship ESP ghostscript because it supposedly works better with the CUPS printing system. I have been using GPL ghostscript with CUPS for a long time, with no complaints. But here is some good news: ESP cups is merging with GPL cups as of version 8.57, and the ESP project will be discontinued. > Darren Dale wrote: > > On Monday 21 May 2007 10:42:26 am you wrote: > >> hi Darren, > >> thanks.
