.eps output cropped off

Q&A PyGMT Q&A
1

Hi,

I’m trying to output a pygmt figure in eps format in order to edit it in Inkscape. Using pygmt.Figure.savefig(output.eps) generates an eps file which is cropped on the right and I can only see about the left 3/4 of the plot.

Exporting it as a png works fine. Setting crop=False didn’t help.

Does anybody have any ideas how to tackle this?

Hmm, that’s a bit strange, setting crop=False (i.e. psconvert -A in GMT) should work according to https://docs.generic-mapping-tools.org/6.2/cookbook/include-figures.html#making-gmt-encapsulated-postscript-files. Does the figure get cropped if you export it as a .pdf format?
