Is it possible to set the font size for all labels in a plot? I have been able to set the font family changing the internal parameters of matplotlib

from matplotlib import rc
rc('text',usetex=True)
rc('font',**{'family':'serif','serif':['Times']})

I'd like to change the size as well, so that all labels created with 'text' are the same size (note that I want to use TeX in labels)

A quite simple way without touching matplotlib configuration:

kwds = {'color':'red','fontsize':16,'fontweight':'bold','rotation':30}
G = Graphics()
G += text('TEST',(2,1),**kwds)
G += text('TEST',(-2,1),**kwds)
G.show()

you need the two astherics? I mean, writing just kwds will not work too?

Have you tried adding 'size' : number to your font dictionary?

Adding 'size' : number seems to have no effect.
