Arguments:

A string containing a path to a filename, or a Python
file-like object, or possibly some backend-dependent object
such as :class:`~matplotlib.backends.backend_pdf.PdfPages`.
If *format* is *None* and *fname* is a string, the output

*papertype*:
One of 'letter', 'legal', 'executive', 'ledger', 'a0' through

output.
*format*:
One of the file extensions supported by the active
backend. Most backends support png, pdf, ps, eps and svg.
*transparent*:
If *True*, the axes patches will all be transparent; the
figure patch will also be transparent unless facecolor
and/or edgecolor are specified via kwargs.
This is useful, for example, for displaying
a plot on top of a colored background on a web page. The
transparency of these patches will be restored to their
original values upon exit of this function.
*frameon*:

figure background will be transparent. If not provided, the

*bbox_inches*:
Bbox in inches. Only the given portion of the figure is
