Hello,

With the Cairo library (http://www.cairographics.org/manual/) it is  
possible to make a driver similar to that built on the GD library  
that would handle at least the following forms of output (all  
truetype & anti-aliased):

1. X Windows (this currently exists using Cairo as xwinttf).
2. Postscript
3. PDF
4. SVG
5. PNG
6. Memory
7. Win32

Clearly these are all redundant to varying degrees with various  
currently existing drivers (psttf, pdf, svg, gd, mem, wingcc),  
although (5) and (6) as I understand it do not support anti-aliasing.  
Since it isn't too hard to do, I'm inclined to go ahead and add this  
redundancy. Thoughts? Suggestions for driver names? c-pdf? cl-pdf?
