Cannot set stackplot linewidth=0 when writing to pdf #2910
Description
Setting linewidth=0 works fine when using show() or writing to a png, but linewidth seems to default to 1 when writing to a PDF.
Here is a demo of the bug:

The PDF spec does not allow for a zero width line (or even less than 1
width lines), so many viewers will force a minimum width of one on display.
We have run into this issue with users specifying linewidths like 0.5 and
having it display like a 1.0 in PDF viewers. Now, for the case of a
zero-width line, I would imagine that it shouldn't be drawn at all.

Hi,
I'm having this issue with
scatteras well, and it is very frustratingtacaswell commentedon Aug 4, 2014
For scatter you might be able to get away with setting the
markeredgecolorto be the same as the marker face color.mpharrigan commentedon Aug 4, 2014
Setting
edgecolorto'none'also seems to workjkseppan commentedon Sep 8, 2014
I think this is fixed by #3485, specifically commit 3a015fa.
