It seems that clip option should be added to the \\pgfusepath command.\n\nCurrent commands cut from top of pgf file:\n\\begingroup%\n\\makeatletter%\n\\begin{pgfpicture}%\n\\pgfpathrectangle{\\pgfpointorigin}{\\pgfqpoint{2.281265in}{2.224689in}}%\n\\pgfusepath{use as bounding box}%\n\nCorrect \\pgfusepath command?:\n\\pgfusepath{use as bounding box,clip}%\n\nI looked at the pgf file and see the use of \\pgfusepath{clip} throughout deeper in the file however it doesn't clip the image.  Adding clip as I did above gives the correct behavior in my latex document.\n\ni created the pgf with a python command like:\nextent = ax.get_window_extent().transformed(fig.dpi_scale_trans.inverted())\nfig.savefig('test.pgf', bbox_inches=extent)\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/gibbycu","@type":"Person","name":"gibbycu"},"datePublished":"2013-11-08T19:38:43.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":8},"url":"https://github.com/2586/matplotlib/issues/2586"}
