[yt-users] Why individual plots have to be saved before being handed to eps_writer?

[Matthew Turk]

Hi Anni,

I think it's just an issue with how the plots are generated -- saving
makes sure they are the latestversion.  I think it would be great to
push something to warn the user if it hasn't been set up yet!
