 want to relax this to account for differences in fonts across different
 systems.
 
+By default, the expected, actual and difference files are written to a
+temporary directory with a non-deterministic path. If you want to instead
+write them to a specific directory, you can use::
+
+    py.test --mpl --mpl-results-path=results
+
+The ``results`` directory will then contain one sub-directory per test, and each
+sub-directory will contain the three files mentioned above. If you are using a
+continuous integration service, you can then use the option to upload artifacts
+to upload these results to somewhere where you can view them. For more
+information, see:
