Cairo is a vector graphics library with cross-device output support. Currently
|
|
supported output targets include the X Window System and in-memory image
|
|
buffers. PostScript and PDF file output is planned. Cairo is designed to
|
|
produce identical output on all output media while taking advantage of display
|
|
hardware acceleration when available (eg. through the X Render Extension).
|
|
|
|
Cairo provides a stateful user-level API with capabilities similar to the PDF
|
|
1.4 imaging model. Cairo provides operations including stroking and filling
|
|
Bezier cubic splines, transforming and compositing translucent images, and
|
|
antialiased text rendering.
