Hi, The following plot >>> from numarray import * >>> x = arange(80000) >>> from pylab import plot,show >>> plot(x,x) >>> show() and saving in postscript format generated a file of 1.5MB, while the equivalent is only 288KB in xmgrace (another plotting program). If I use plot(x,x,"k,"), this even leads to a horrible 8.0MB. How come? I understand there is an issue with the fonts, but this can't be the only responsible, can it? Plotting no points, just a title, and saving in postscript leads to a file size of only 133KB. FWIW, I'm trying to make postscript plots using Python 2.4.1, latest numarray, and matplotlib 0.83.2.
