Summary: C++ stream output interface for creating Unicode PostScript documents
Description:
libLASi is a library written by Larry Siden that provides
a C++ stream output interface (with operator <<) for creating
Postscript documents that can contain characters from any of the
scripts and symbol blocks supported in Unicode and by Owen
Taylor's Pango layout engine.
The library accomodates right-to-left scripts such as Arabic
and Hebrew as easily as left-to-right scripts. Indic and
Indic-derived Complex Text Layout (CTL) scripts, such as
Devanagari, Thai, Lao, and Tibetan are supported to the extent
provided by Pango and by the OpenType fonts installed on your
system. All of this is provided without need for any special
configuration or layout calculation on the programmer's part.
Although the capability to produce Unicode-based multilingual
Postscript documents exists in large Open Source application
framework libraries such as GTK+, QT, and KDE, libLASi was
designed for projects which require the ability to produce
Postscript independent of any one application framework.
