I show list of available fonts.
I show three example codes to get List of fonts.
Example code 1
This is the example code.
import matplotlib.font_manager as fm
import pprint
font_list = [f.name for f in fm.fontManager.ttflist]
pprint.pprint(font_list)

[Supplement]How to set a font
I show how to set a font.
This is the example code.
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.linspace(0, np.pi * 4, 100)
y = np.sin(x)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, y, label = 'sin')
ax.set_xlabel('X-label', fontsize = 18, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
ax.set_ylabel('Y-label', fontsize = 18, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
ax.set_title('Title', fontsize = 18, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
ax.text(0, -0.8, 'text', fontsize = 14, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
ax.legend(prop = {'family' : 'MS Gothic'})
plt.show()The above code generates the following graph.
How to set a label font
> ax.set_xlabel('X-label', fontsize = 18, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
> ax.set_ylabel('Y-label', fontsize = 18, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
You can use the argument "fontname =" to set a label font.
How to set a title font
> ax.set_title('Title', fontsize = 18, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
You can use the argument "fontname =" to set a title font.
How to set a text font
> ax.text(0, -0.8, 'text', fontsize = 14, fontname = 'MS Gothic')
You can use the argument "fontname =" to set a text font.
How to set a legend font
ax.legend(prop = {'family' : 'MS Gothic'})
In the case of "legend", the font can be changed by passing the text property as a dictionary type.
