	libart is a nice toolkit though it's still pretty rough and 
Raph is spending more of his time on GhostScript these days rather 
than libart.  You might want to also consider ImageMagick 
(<http://www.imagemagick.org>), which also now (as of the 5.2.5 
release) has a MUCH nicer quality (and equivalently fast) vector 
primitive engine (along with all sorts of other cool stuff).

	Also, for anyone doing commercial stuff, ImageMagick has NO 
commercial license fees or contract or anything - you just use it. 
libart is, however, commercially licensed by Artifex 
(<http://www.artofcode.com>) at a rather hefty fee.
