It's done, except that it is '-dCairo.pdf'. Also, examples/backend_driver.py now supports case-insensitive specifation of backends, and the same form of cairo specification. See docstring at the top. I found that the cairo backend writes ps files but not eps--it enlists backend_ps for eps files. Does pycairo not have a way to specify eps rather than ps output? Eric > > -Carl > > PS.
