[Matplotlib-users] No PDF figs in Plot Directive Sphinx Doc.

[bhargav v. <coo...@gm...>]

Hello, 

I was currently looking into the new plot directive Sphinx extension that comes with matplotlib. 

My purpose is to use it for documentation of examples for my source code. 
However, I wish to just have html figure links only to PNG and Hires PNG files 
and no link for the PDF files.  

I looked into the plot_directive.py and saw that the plot_formats are set to have default value of 
[‘png’, ‘hires.png’, ‘pdf’] which can not be configured , at least I was not able to do the same. 

Can any one suggest if I can choose the plot formats whose link I would like to show when 
I use the plot directive Sphinx Extension. 
Are there any plans to make the "plot formats” configurable ?

Regards
Bhargav.
