matplotlib overall font size code example

Example 1: matplotlib plot title font size

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt    

fig = plt.figure()
plt.plot(data)
fig.suptitle('test title', fontsize=20)
plt.xlabel('xlabel', fontsize=18)
plt.ylabel('ylabel', fontsize=16)

        'size'   : 22}

matplotlib.rc('font', **font)
