It's also worth having a look at the code on the (abandoned) wxpdf branch. See this post (and others by Ben) to have a look: http://www.mail-archive.com/mapnik-devel@lists.berlios.de/msg00140.html it has/had some cool features which could be worth porting to a Cairo-based PDF renderer. * paper sizes/scale calculations * grids/graticules * overlay images, including other PDFs * scale bars * borders around the map, with coordinates * outputting map layers as true PDF layers. This allows turning on & off individual layers in a PDF viewer. The addition of SVG symbol support makes things more scalable too...
