Hello,
the current way the PostScript backend works is as follows:
1) FigureCanvasPS.print_figure() uses StringIO to make a string look like
a file.
2) The RendererPS class writes the PostScript file (except for the header=
s)
into this string, using file operations. This is done via call to
Figure.draw()
3) FigureCanvasPS.print_figure() writes the resulting string into the
output file.
Is there a reason for storing the PostScript data in a string first?
Otherwise I could just pass the real file handle to RendererPS and it
would write all the stuff directly into the output file.
All the best,
Jochen
