Bug report
Changing the rcParams option pgf.texsystem to lualatex is not working in my installation (Ubuntu 18.04 with python 3.6 and latest version of matplotlib installed from pip).
Code for reproduction
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import matplotlib as mpl
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
mpl.use("pgf")
pgf_with_lualatex = {
"text.usetex": True,
"pgf.rcfonts": False,
"pgf.texsystem": 'lualatex',
"text.latex.preamble": [
r"\usepackage{fontspec}",
r"\setmainfont{Arial}",
],
}
mpl.rcParams.update(pgf_with_lualatex)
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(np.linspace(0,10,10), marker='o')
fig.savefig('test.pdf')Actual outcome

Expected outcome
A pdf version of the plot generated with Lualatex.
Matplotlib version
- Operating system: Ubuntu 18.04
- Matplotlib version: 2.2.2
- Matplotlib backend (
print(matplotlib.get_backend())): TkAgg - Python version: 3.6
I installed python in a virtual environment and then installed matplotlib with pip.
