savefig() to eps/pdf does not work

[lucaventurini]

While it works for png.

The error is:

   1427     @staticmethod
   1428     def pathOperations(path, transform, clip=None, simplify=None, sketch=None):
-> 1429         return [Verbatim(_path.convert_to_string(
   1430             path, transform, clip, simplify, sketch,
   1431             6,

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'convert_to_string'

Maybe it's due to a missing self in this line: https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/blob/master/lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_pdf.py#L1425

Can you provide a minimal example and a full traceback? I can not even tell which module that code is from.

[WeatherGod]

No, it is a static method, so the call signature does not get a self. Chances are, there is something wrong with your install/build. Could you please include the full traceback, and describe what version of matplotlib you have, and how it was installed?

Closing; there is nothing we can do with the information available.
