Rendering Vector Graphics

[Bytter]

Hi ppl,

I've already posted this message through the mailing-list, but it seems
it never arrived here. Strange... Anyway:

I need to render high-quality vector graphics with Python. I was
thinking of something like 'cairo', though I need to run under win32
and can't find a pycairo package for it. Suggestions?

Thanks,

Hugo Ferreira

I've had good experiences doing simple 3d vector stuff with Pygame.
It's wraps SDL so it has pretty nice capabilities.

What about 2D? I won't be doing any 3d stuff, though I need
high-quality 2D, and complex stuff like defining clipping regions with
bezier curves and filling with gradients.

Thanks!

AGG (Anti-Grain Geometry) is one such engine that a couple of people
have interfaced to Python.

Hi,

You can use cairo through the pyGTK bindings. Works pretty well for me.

Cheers,

Here are a couple of AGG wrappers for Python:
1) Fredrik Lundh's aggdraw allows you to draw AGG graphics on top of PIL
images.
2) You can also check out my dvpaint module. http://tachyon.in/davinci/
(It is a part of a larger vector graphics project which i hope to work
on sometime in the future.)
