I'm unable to use the fonts Helvetica and Helvetica Neue in Ubuntu Linux.
I receive the error:
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/matplotlib-1.3.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg/matplotlib/font_manager.py:1236:
UserWarning: findfont: Font family ['Helvetica Neue'] not found. Falling back to Bitstream Vera Sans
Note that:
I removed the font cache (but it never got regenerated. Could that be the problem?)
The same font on MacOS works fine with matplotlib.
I'm happy to attach the font if necessary (and if it's allowed)
matplotlib version: 1.3.0 and master (1.4.x)
ubuntu version: 13.04
@tacaswell Does the font cache matter when you are specifying a font's path directly?
Anyway, the problem does not persist on current release, so all good. Thanks!
