python - 如何使用 matplotlib 和 usetex 设置轴标签(数字)的 Helvetica 字体？

Question

我将 matplotlibrc 参数文件中的字体样式设置为已安装的 Helvetica(无衬线)，并将 text.usetex 设置为“true”，但轴字体使用衬线字体。我的matplotlibrc参数文件如下:

lines.linewidth : 1.0               # Line width (in points).
lines.linestyle : -                 # Line style.
lines.color : blue                  # Line color.

如何让坐标区字体使用 Helvetica sans？

更新

我尝试使用代码:

plt.rcParams['font.family'] = 'Helvetica'

但这就是我得到的错误:

/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/matplotlib/font_manager.py:1236: UserWarning: findfont: Font family ['Helvetica'] not found. Falling back to Bitstream Vera Sans
  (prop.get_family(), self.defaultFamily[fontext]))

您是否已将 .ttf 文件添加到 matplotlib 可以找到的位置？操作系统的“已安装”可能并不意味着 matplotlib 的“已安装”。查看这篇博文:http://blog.olgabotvinnik.com/blog/2012/11/15/2012-11-15-how-to-set-helvetica-as-the-default-sans-serif-font-in/
