Such an unit, together with our SynPdf library for example, could be useful in your application. So we released the source!

The Unicode part of the Synopse PDF engine has been updated in order to support right-to-left languages and ligatures (i.e. glyph shaping).

Antialiased drawing from TMetaFile
By A.Bouchez on 2010, Friday April 2, 14:25
The new version of our Open Source SynGdiPlus unit
does provide a lot of new features:
- dynamic linking (your program runs even on Windows 98/2000), without the
gdiplus.dll library
- use version 1.1 of GDI+ if available on your system (under Vista/Seven or the
one embedded since Office 2003)
- can convert from a TMetaFile (i.e. emf) into a GDI+ metafile (i.e.
emf+)
- can draw TMetaFiles into any canvas, with
GDI+ anti-aliasing!
