python中rcparams_如何使用mpl.rcParams在matplotlib中加载.ttf文件？

I have a matplotlib script that starts ...

import matplotlib as mpl

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import matplotlib.font_manager as fm

mpl.rcParams['xtick.labelsize']=16

...

I've used the command

fm.findSystemFonts()

to get a list of the fonts on my system. I've discovered the full path to a .ttf file I'd like to use,

'/usr/share/fonts/truetype/anonymous-pro/Anonymous Pro BI.ttf'

I've tried to use this font without success using the following commands

mpl.rcParams['font.family'] = 'anonymous-pro'

and

mpl.rcParams['font.family'] = 'Anonymous Pro BI'

which both return something like

/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/matplotlib/font_manager.py:1218: UserWarning: findfont: Font family ['anonymous-pro'] not found. Falling back to Bitstream Vera Sans

Can I use the mpl.rcParams dictionary to set this font in my plots?

EDIT

After reading a bit more, it seems this is a general problem of determining the font family name from a .ttf file. Is this easy to do in linux or python ?

In addition, I've tried adding

mpl.use['agg']

mpl.rcParams['text.usetex'] = False

without any success

Specifying a font family:

If all you know is the path to the ttf, then you can discover the font family name using the get_name method:

import matplotlib as mpl

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import matplotlib.font_manager as font_manager

path = '/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Comic_Sans_MS.ttf'

prop = font_manager.FontProperties(fname=path)

mpl.rcParams['font.family'] = prop.get_name()

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

ax.set_title('Text in a cool font', size=40)

plt.show()

Specifying a font by path:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

import matplotlib.font_manager as font_manager

path = '/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Comic_Sans_MS.ttf'

prop = font_manager.FontProperties(fname=path)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

ax.set_title('Text in a cool font', fontproperties=prop, size=40)

plt.show()
