	The gpdf bonobo component is totally horked, and has been pretty much
since it was written (by me) - it needs binning, updating to the latest
xpdf sources, and the rendering engine re-writing using the canvas, then
we'd have a fast, pretty, anti-aliased pdf rendering component, and it
shouldn't be that difficult since PDF ~= postscript anyway.

	But it hasn't got done; if someone wants a fun project - there it is
;-)

	Regards,

		Michael.
