Summary : C++ library for creating Postscript documents
URL : http://www.unifont.org/lasi/
License : LGPLv2+
Description : LASi 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 accommodates
: 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, LASi was designed for projects which require the ability
: to produce Postscript independent of any one application framework.
