osx 字体 linux,Linux/MacOS下matplotlib能正常显示的中文字体选择

下面的Python脚本可以检测到 *nix 系统内 matplotlib 支持正常显示的中文字体(用到了命令行工具 fc-list )：

#!/usr/bin/env python

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# File Name: font_check.py

# Created Time: Thu Mar 23 16:53:59 2017

__author__ = 'minyu'

__mail__ = 'minyu7374@gmail.com'

from matplotlib.font_managerimport FontManager

import subprocess

mpl_fonts = set(f.namefor f in FontManager().ttflist)

print ('all font list get from matplotlib.font_manager:')

for f in sorted(mpl_fonts):

print('\t' + f)

# for python2

# output = subprocess.check_output('fc-list :lang=zh -f "%{family}\n"', shell=True)

# for python3

output = subprocess.check_output('fc-list :lang=zh -f "%{family}\n"', shell=True, encoding="utf8")

zh_fonts = set(f.split(',',1)[0] for f in output.split('\n'))

print('\n' +'Chinese font list get from fc-list:')

for f in sorted(zh_fonts):

print('\t' + f)

print('\n' +'the fonts we can use:')

available = set(mpl_fonts) & set(zh_fonts)

for f in available:

print('\t' + f)

在个人的 MacOS Sierra 系统下运行结果如下：

YaHei Consolas Hybrid 是我自己安装的字体，其他三个都是系统默认的，

这里选择了 YaHei Consolas Hybrid。

mpl.rcParams['font.sans-serif'] = ['YaHei Consolas Hybrid'] #指定默认字体

mpl.rcParams['axes.unicode_minus'] = False # 解决保存图像是负号'-'显示为方块的问题
