Rendering SVG documents
<char>) (width-in-points <double>) (height-in-points <double>) => (ret <cairo-surface-t>)Creates a SVG surface of the specified size in points to be written to filename.
- filename
- a filename for the SVG output (must be writable)
- 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)
- ret
- 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-statusto check for this.Since 1.2
