UnicodeDecodeError when using matplotlib save SVG file and open it again #7611
Description
I'm study matplotlib on win7 32-bit, matplotlib1.5.3, python3.5
when i run some sample code:
%matplotlib inline
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pylab as plt
import numpy
from IPython.display import Image, SVG
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
t = numpy.linspace(0, 10, 100)
ax.plot(t, numpy.cos(t)*numpy.sin(t))
plt.savefig("test.svg", format="svg");
SVG(filename="test.svg")in jupyter notebook.
I get error:
