A Python library providing Matplotlib style sheets that format figures for scientific papers, theses, and presentations. It includes styles like 'science' and 'ieee' that emulate publication-quality plots, with optional LaTeX and CJK font support.
Use cases
- make matplotlib figures look like they belong in a scientific paper
- style plots for an IEEE paper
- format charts for my thesis
- publication-quality plots in Python
- make matplotlib use LaTeX fonts in figures
- create presentation-ready scientific charts
When to choose
- You use Matplotlib and need publication-quality figure styling for papers, theses, or presentations
- You want IEEE- or journal-style plots with minimal effort
- You need LaTeX-rendered text or CJK font support in your figures
When to avoid
- You don't use Matplotlib (e.g., you plot with Plotly, ggplot, or seaborn's own theming)
- You can't install LaTeX on your system, since the primary styles require it
- You need fully custom branding or non-scientific chart aesthetics
