True but I have one issue with cairo: it is much, much slower than recent drawings. If you want printing, you would need compile fltk with cairo and then redirect that cairo to the printer (pdf file, whatever). On the other hand if you have cairo within a pluggable abstraction, you can do screen output using recent drawings and use cairo plug-in only for printing which must be scalable and precise.
