Re: Pango Rendering API

[Noah Levitt <nlevitt columbia edu>]

I haven't tried this myself, but I would think you need to
do something like the following:

context = pango_xft_get_context ()
layout = pango_layout_new ()
pango_layout_set_text ()

Then, pango_xft_render in a loop. Unfortunately, there is no
pango_xft_render_layout (see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118515)
so I would suggest you copy the pango_ft2_render_layout
function and modify it to do Xft.
