[Matplotlib-users] Russian labels without LaTeX

[Alexander B. <vo...@ua...>]

Hi, list!
  I want to use Russian or Ukrainian language in text within matplotlib plot.
There is solution, which I know - it is possible when text rendered with external LaTeX:

from matplotlib import rc
rc('font',**{'family':'serif'})
rc('text', usetex=True)
rc('text.latex',unicode=True)
rc('text.latex',preamble='\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}')
rc('text.latex',preamble='\usepackage[russian]{babel}')

But LaTex is really large dependency, and many users don't want to install it. So my question.
Is it possible to use Russian or Ukrainian language in text within matplotlib plot in another way than using LaTeX?
