Here's how I like to implement that approach when I want strict dimensions:

    figW = 6.5  # in inches
    figH = 7
    fig = figure(figsize=(figW, figH),
        subplotpars=mpl.figure.SubplotParams(
            left=      (48 / 72.0) / figW,   # 48-point left margin 
            bottom=    (36 / 72.0) / figH,   # etc.
            right= 1 - (18 / 72.0) / figW, 
            top=   1 - (12 / 72.0) / figH))
