About Pango===========
Pango is a library for layout and rendering of text, with an emphasison internationalization. Pango can be used anywhere that text layoutis needed, though most of the work on Pango so far has been done inthe context of the GTK+ widget toolkit. Pango forms the core of textand font handling for GTK+-2.x.
Pango is designed to be modular; the core Pango layout engine canbe used with different font backends. There are three basic backends,with multiple options for rendering with each.
 - Client side fonts using the FreeType and fontconfig libraries.   Rendering can be with with Cairo or Xft libraries, or directly   to an in-memory buffer with no additional libraries.
 - Native fonts on Microsoft Windows. (Optionally using Uniscribe   for complex-text handling). Rendering can be done via Cairo   or directly using the native Win32 API.
 - Native fonts on MacOS X, rendering via Cairo.
The integration of Pango with Cairo (http://cairographics.org)provides a complete solution with high quality text handlingand graphics rendering.
Dynamically loaded modules then handle text layout for particularcombinations of script and font backend. Pango ships with a wideselection of modules, including modules for Hebrew, Arabic,Hangul, Thai, and a number of Indic scripts. Virtually all of theworld's major scripts are supported.
As well as the low level layout rendering routines, Pango includesPangoLayout, a high level driver for laying out entire blocks of text,and routines to assist in editing internationalized text.
More information about Pango is available from http://www.pango.org/.Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
Pango 1.14 depends on version 2.10.0 or newer of the GLiblibrary and version 1.2.2 or newer of the cairo library (if thecairo backend is desired); more information about GLib and cairocan be found at http://www.gtk.org/ and http://cairographics.org/respectively.
