+PGF is a macro package for creating graphics. It is platform- and
+format-independent and works together with the most important TeX
+backend drivers, including pdftex and dvips. It comes with a
+user-friedly syntax layer called TikZ.
+
+Its usage is similar to pstricks and the standard picture environment.
+PGF works with plain (pdf-)TeX, (pdf-)LaTeX, and ConTeXt. Unlike
+pstricks, it can produce either PostScript or PDF output.
