I am using the Springer Verlag Mongraph class svmono.cls for layouting my PhD dissertation. With a preamble, i am able on changing small things in this preamble, however i fail in changing the font type to e.g. Kurier Light Condensed. What is the easiest way to change the \normalfont?

There is matplotlib2tikz, which creates a TikZ/pgfplots file that can be \input in your document. I don't know how well it works, having never used matplotlib, but I have used matlab2tikz from the same author, and that works well. Also, I do not know if matplotlib2tikz supports all the different kinds of plots that matplotlib can create – in the Matlab case there are some limitations I believe.
Edit: For reference, here is a brief explanation of installation and use.
Having downloaded the files from github, navigate to the folder in a command line, and run python setup.py install to install matplotlib2tikz.
In your Python script add from matplotlib2tikz import matplotlib2tikz, and add matplotlib2tikz('filename.tex') after your plot, e.g.
from numpy import arange
from matplotlib2tikz import matplotlib2tikz
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = arange(0,10,0.5)
plt.plot(x,x**2)
plt.title("A lovely plot")
plt.ylabel("$y=x^2$")
matplotlib2tikz('test.tex')
You can also specify the width and height of the plot in the Python script, as mentioned in the readme of matplotlib2tikz.
Understanding that it might be difficult to switch packages, even from a deprecated one, here's an update that addresses your requirements.
In order get the sub-figure label to be displayed as
a)instead of(a)you have two options:Either redefine the counter displaying mechanism
\thesubfigure. By default, it is defined as\renewcommand*{\thesubfigure}{(\alph{subfigure})}which adds the parentheses around the (alphabetic) counter
subfigure. Therefore, using\renewcommand*{\thesubfigure}{\alph{subfigure})}removes the left parenthesis. However, using only this, you need to accept that text label references to sub-figures will also include this adjustment:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage[bf]{subfigure}% http://ctan.org/pkg/subfigure \renewcommand{\thesubfigure}{\alph{subfigure})}% (a) -> a) \begin{document} \begin{figure} \centering \subfigure[First figure\label{subfig1}]{\rule{100pt}{50pt}} \quad \subfigure[Second figure\label{subfig2}]{\rule{100pt}{50pt}} \caption{Some figures}\label{mainfigure} \end{figure} See Figure~\ref{subfig1} and~\ref{subfig2}. \end{document}or, change the way the sub-caption is set. That is, not mess with the counter representation, but rather the caption setup. This required a modification to
\thesubfigureand\@thesubfigure:
\documentclass{article} \usepackage[bf]{subfigure}% http://ctan.org/pkg/subfigure \makeatletter \renewcommand{\thesubfigure}{\alph{subfigure}}% (a) -> a \renewcommand{\@thesubfigure}{\thesubfigure)\hskip\subfiglabelskip}% a -> a) \makeatother \begin{document} \begin{figure} \centering \subfigure[First figure\label{subfig1}]{\rule{100pt}{50pt}} \quad \subfigure[Second figure\label{subfig2}]{\rule{100pt}{50pt}} \caption{Some figures}\label{mainfigure} \end{figure} See Figure~\ref{subfig1} and~\ref{subfig2}. \end{document}
Addressing the italic shape of the sub-caption is done using the
ITpackage option:\usepackage[bf,IT]{subfigure}% http://ctan.org/pkg/subfigureIn general, lower case (old-school) options like
bf,it, andsfreference the sub-caption label, while upper case options likeBF,IT, andSFreference the sub-caption title/text. See Table 1 (p 6) of thesubfiguredocumentation.
Here is a complete MWE using the above suggestions:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[bf,IT]{subfigure}% http://ctan.org/pkg/subfigure
\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\thesubfigure}{\alph{subfigure}}% (a) -> a
\renewcommand{\@thesubfigure}{\thesubfigure)\hskip\subfiglabelskip}% a -> a)
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\centering
\subfigure[First figure\label{subfig1}]{\rule{100pt}{50pt}} \quad
\subfigure[Second figure\label{subfig2}]{\rule{100pt}{50pt}}
\caption{Some figures}\label{mainfigure}
\end{figure}
See Figure~\ref{subfig1} and~\ref{subfig2}.
\end{document}
All of the above discussions pertain to sub-figures. However, since subfigure defines an analogous sub-table component, all references to subfigure can be replaced with subtable.

The following example (using
svmono.clsas provided in your first link) works for me.(The lipsum package is only used to add some dummy text to the example.)
