Gnome is in need of a unified printing architecture. This package is an
attempt for such an architecture, geared towards heavily graphics-intensive
applications.
The goals of this architecture include:
- Absolutely uncompromised output quality
- Speed, memory efficiency, and other related performance goals
- Ability to work smoothly with PostScript printers, fonts, and
other resources
- A screen display derived from the Caanvas
- An extension path for a wide variety of Unicode scripts
- An extension path for a richer set of graphics operators than
PostScript supports, especially transparency
- To make life as easy as possible for application developers
