Using cairo on Windows is more or less pointless now in my opinion, as the DirectX canvas is included and built by default. They should be closely equivalent qualitywise. The DirectX canvas uses much less CPU as it takes advantage of hardware acceleration. I did some tests back when we used to have the cairo canvas built also on Windows, and for a particular presentation some effects took 100% of one CPU when using the cairo canvas, and only some 10% when using the DirectX one. --tml --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
