Project description:
Cairo is a vector graphics library with  cross-device output support.
It currently  supports the X Window System and in-memory image 
buffers as output targets. It 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). It
provides a stateful  user-level API with capabilities similar to the 
PDF 1.4 imaging model and provides operations  including stroking and
filling Bezier cubic  splines, transforming and compositing 
translucent images, and antialiased text  rendering.
