[Matplotlib-users] eps file format

[Christian M. <mee...@un...>]

Hi,

I'd like to write a paper with figures in eps format. Since the paper is for 
one of Elseviers journals the eps-figures have to meet the following 
requirements:
- all colors have to be in the rgb color space - this seems to be true for the 
files I generate.
- it should include a 8bit preview/header at a resolution of 72dpi - no idea 
how to generate this
- allowed fonts are: Arial, Courier, Helvetica, Times, Symbol - this is 
something I can set in the rc file, although I have no idea what is true in 
latex rendered parts

Can somebody tell me please, whether matplotlib indeed creates colors in the 
rgb color space and answer the other two questions, too? Would be really 
great ...

TIA
Christian
