The following mime types are supported: CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JPEG, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JP2, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_UNIQUE_ID, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2_GLOBAL, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2_GLOBAL_ID, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX, CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS. JBIG2 ImagesJBIG2 data in PDF must be in the embedded format as described in ISO/IEC 11544. Image specific JBIG2 data must be in CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2. Any global segments in the JBIG2 data (segments with page association field set to 0) must be in CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2_GLOBAL. The global data may be shared by multiple images. All images sharing the same global data must set CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2_GLOBAL_ID to a unique identifier. At least one of the images must provide the global data using CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2_GLOBAL. The global data will only be embedded once and shared by all JBIG2 images with the same CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JBIG2_GLOBAL_ID. CCITT Fax ImagesThe CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX mime data requires a number of decoding parameters These parameters are specified using CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS. CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS mime data must contain a string of the form "param1=value1 param2=value2 ...". Columns : [required] An integer specifying the width of the image in pixels. Rows : [required] An integer specifying the height of the image in scan lines. K : [optional] An integer identifying the encoding scheme used. < 0 is 2 dimensional Group 4, = 0 is Group3 1 dimensional, > 0 is mixed 1 and 2 dimensional encoding. Default is 0. EndOfLine : [optional] If true end-of-line bit patterns are present. Default is false. EncodedByteAlign : [optional] If true the end of line is padded with 0 bits so the next line begins on a byte boundary. Default is false. EndOfBlock : [optional] If true the data contains an end-of-block pattern. Default is true. BlackIs1 : [optional] If true 1 bits are black pixels. Default is false. DamagedRowsBeforeError : [optional] An integer specifying the number of damages rows tolerated before an error occurs. Default is 0. Boolean values may be "true" or "false", or 1 or 0. These parameters are the same as the CCITTFaxDecode parameters in the PostScript Language Reference and Portable Document Format (PDF). Refer to these documents for further details. An example CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_CCITT_FAX_PARAMS string is: "Columns=10230 Rows=40000 K=1 EndOfLine=true EncodedByteAlign=1 BlackIs1=false" Functions cairo_pdf_surface_create () cairo_pdf_surface_create cairo_surface_t * cairo_pdf_surface_create (const char *filename, double width_in_points, double height_in_points); Creates a PDF surface of the specified size in points to be written to filename . Parameters filename a filename for the PDF output (must be writable), NULL may be used to specify no output. This will generate a PDF surface that may be queried and used as a source, without generating a temporary file. width_in_points width of the surface, in points (1 point == 1/72.0 inch) height_in_points height of the surface, in points (1 point == 1/72.0 inch) Returns a pointer to the newly created surface. The caller owns the surface and should call cairo_surface_destroy() when done with it. This function always returns a valid pointer, but it will return a pointer to a "nil" surface if an error such as out of memory occurs. You can use cairo_surface_status() to check for this. Since: 1.2 cairo_pdf_surface_create_for_stream () cairo_pdf_surface_create_for_stream cairo_surface_t * cairo_pdf_surface_create_for_stream (cairo_write_func_t write_func, void *closure, double width_in_points, double height_in_points); Creates a PDF surface of the specified size in points to be written incrementally to the stream represented by write_func and closure . Parameters write_func a cairo_write_func_t to accept the output data, may be NULL to indicate a no-op write_func . With a no-op write_func , the surface may be queried or used as a source without generating any temporary files. closure the closure argument for write_func width_in_points width of the surface, in points (1 point == 1/72.0 inch) height_in_points height of the surface, in points (1 point == 1/72.0 inch) Returns a pointer to the newly created surface. The caller owns the surface and should call cairo_surface_destroy() when done with it. This function always returns a valid pointer, but it will return a pointer to a "nil" surface if an error such as out of memory occurs. You can use cairo_surface_status() to check for this. Since: 1.2 cairo_pdf_surface_restrict_to_version () cairo_pdf_surface_restrict_to_version void cairo_pdf_surface_restrict_to_version (cairo_surface_t *surface, cairo_pdf_version_t version); Restricts the generated PDF file to version . See cairo_pdf_get_versions() for a list of available version values that can be used here. This function should only be called before any drawing operations have been performed on the given surface. The simplest way to do this is to call this function immediately after creating the surface. Parameters surface a PDF cairo_surface_t version PDF version Since: 1.10 cairo_pdf_get_versions () cairo_pdf_get_versions void cairo_pdf_get_versions (cairo_pdf_version_t const **versions, int *num_versions); Used to retrieve the list of supported versions. See cairo_pdf_surface_restrict_to_version(). Parameters versions supported version list num_versions list length Since: 1.10 cairo_pdf_version_to_string () cairo_pdf_version_to_string const char * cairo_pdf_version_to_string (cairo_pdf_version_t version); Get the string representation of the given version id. This function will return NULL if version isn't valid. See cairo_pdf_get_versions() for a way to get the list of valid version ids. Parameters version a version id Returns the string associated to given version. Since: 1.10 cairo_pdf_surface_set_size () cairo_pdf_surface_set_size void cairo_pdf_surface_set_size (cairo_surface_t *surface, double width_in_points, double height_in_points); Changes the size of a PDF surface for the current (and subsequent) pages. This function should only be called before any drawing operations have been performed on the current page. The simplest way to do this is to call this function immediately after creating the surface or immediately after completing a page with either cairo_show_page() or cairo_copy_page(). Parameters surface a PDF cairo_surface_t width_in_points new surface width, in points (1 point == 1/72.0 inch) height_in_points new surface height, in points (1 point == 1/72.0 inch) Since: 1.2 cairo_pdf_surface_add_outline () cairo_pdf_surface_add_outline int cairo_pdf_surface_add_outline (cairo_surface_t *surface, int parent_id, const char *utf8, const char *link_attribs, cairo_pdf_outline_flags_t flags); Add an item to the document outline hierarchy with the name utf8 that links to the location specified by link_attribs . Link attributes have the same keys and values as the Link Tag, excluding the "rect" attribute. The item will be a child of the item with id parent_id . Use CAIRO_PDF_OUTLINE_ROOT as the parent id of top level items. Parameters surface a PDF cairo_surface_t parent_id the id of the parent item or CAIRO_PDF_OUTLINE_ROOT if this is a top level item. utf8 the name of the outline link_attribs the link attributes specifying where this outline links to flags outline item flags Returns the id for the added item.

The CAIRO_PDF_METADATA_CREATE_DATE and CAIRO_PDF_METADATA_MOD_DATE values must be in ISO-8601 format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss. An optional timezone of the form "[+/-]hh:mm" or "Z" for UTC time can be appended. All other metadata values can be any UTF-8 string. For example: cairo_pdf_surface_set_metadata (surface, CAIRO_PDF_METADATA_TITLE, "My Document"); cairo_pdf_surface_set_metadata (surface, CAIRO_PDF_METADATA_CREATE_DATE, "2015-12-31T23:59+02:00"); Parameters surface a PDF cairo_surface_t metadata The metadata item to set. utf8 metadata value Since: 1.16 cairo_pdf_surface_set_page_label () cairo_pdf_surface_set_page_label void cairo_pdf_surface_set_page_label (cairo_surface_t *surface, const char *utf8); Set page label for the current page.
