Where does matplotlib look for fonts on Linux?
Find out using
matplotlib_font_dirs.py
import matplotlib.font_manager
print(matplotlib.font_manager.X11FontDirectories)On my Ubuntu 22.04, this lists:
example.py
['/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/',
'/usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts',
'/usr/share/fonts/',
'/usr/local/share/fonts/',
'/usr/lib/openoffice/share/fonts/truetype/',
'~/.local/share/fonts',
'~/.fonts']
