Yes, ImageMagick does the job, as do many other libraries. I’m using this in WeasyPrint, where I also use Pango and thus depend on glib anyway, so GDK-PixBuf makes sense. CFFI also allows doing this in Python without compiling custom C code (which helps for portability.) That said, I would be glad to see code examples for doing the same with ImageMagick or other libraries. -- Simon Sapin -- cairo mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo
