-long_desc="
- 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."
