Figure Images for Papers

High resolution

Matplotlib

Figure images for papers are required to have dpi of 300 (= high resolution). With matplotlib, you can save an image as follows: 

plt.savefig('Final_Plot.png', dpi=300, bbox_inches='tight')

jpg vs. png Note that a .jpg file carries "dpi" information in the property, while a .png file does not show it in the property. But, a png file is much lighter.

Avoiding Type 3 Font

According to the AAAI conference, they don't accept "type 3 font". But, matplotlib uses type 3 font as default. We can change this as follows:

matplotlib.rcParams['pdf.fonttype'] = 42
matplotlib.rcParams['ps.fonttype'] = 42
