[Matplotlib-users] computer modern

[Nicolas P. <nic...@gm...>]

Hi,

is there any way to use Computer Modern in any text in matplotlib ?

In http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/customizing.html, I read the 
following :

#font.serif          : Bitstream Vera Serif, New Century Schoolbook, Century Schoolbook L, Utopia, ITC Bookman, Bookman, Nimbus Roman No9 L, Times New Roman, Times, Palatino, Charter, serif
#font.sans-serif     : Bitstream Vera Sans, Lucida Grande, Verdana, Geneva, Lucid, Arial, Helvetica, Avant Garde, sans-serif
#font.cursive        : Apple Chancery, Textile, Zapf Chancery, Sand, cursive
#font.fantasy        : Comic Sans MS, Chicago, Charcoal, Impact, Western, fantasy
#font.monospace      : Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, Andale Mono, Nimbus Mono L, Courier New, Courier, Fixed, Terminal, monospace

So, Computer Modern is not listed there.

However, Computer Modern is used in mathtext, so I suppose there is a 
way to use it also in plain text, but I can't figure it...

I tried :
/mpl.rc('font', family = 'serif', serif = 'computer modern roman')/
but it did not work.

Thanks a lot,

Nicolas P.
