[Matplotlib-users] legend issue while embedding fonts in eps figure

[Grigoris M. <gr....@gm...>]

Hello!

I am creating a plot and I select the font type to be TrueType (by using 
rcParams['ps.fonttype'] = 42).
I am using this image later on in a tex file and when I am creating the 
pdf file I check for the font types and I see
name                                 type              emb sub uni object ID
[none]                               Type 3            yes no no     160  0

But if I comment the legend while making the plot then I do not get a 
Type 3 font.

Why is that? It seems that the fonttype does not apply to the legend (or 
am I missing something?).

Best

Grigoris
