[Matplotlib-users] preserving transparency in eps

[Chuck Pepe-R. <cp...@mi...>]

Does anybody have a good method for preserving quality and transparancy of
eps images when going from matplotlib to latex to pdf?  I can only preserve
the transparency if I save as png and then convert to eps but then I lose
quality.  If I save as eps directly, all my patches are opaque despite the
alpha values.

Thanks,
