Re: [Matplotlib-users] LaTeX, eps, ghostscript, and the like

I just committed a number of changes related to the usetex option. I modified 
the way we scale text to handle changes in font size, this is handled by 
latex now and closes a long standing bug related to the rendering of 
extremely long strings. I believe the recent problem related to an errant 
font command I introduced last week have also been resolved.

Mac users can use a temporary rc parameter to get nice results with usetex. 
Just add text.dvipnghack : True to your matplotlibrc file.
