Figure printing is a mess #31
Description
The use of figprint.py and journal_figure.py should be totally eliminated. The class FigurePrint is completely unnecessary. There could be a file common to all research code figure_utils.py, which would store the RC params for "research paper" format of figures and helper functions for calculating the figure size etc.
Everything can be handled by combination of matplotlib.pyplot.rc_context and matplotlib.switch_backends.
