<p>
<a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a> is the abstract type representing all different drawing
targets that cairo can render to.  The actual drawings are
performed using a cairo <em class="firstterm">context</em>.
</p>
<p>
A cairo surface is created by using <em class="firstterm">backend</em>-specific
constructors, typically of the form
<code class="function">cairo_<span class="emphasis"><em>backend</em></span>_surface_create()</code>.
</p>
<p>
Most surface types allow accessing the surface without using Cairo
functions. If you do this, keep in mind that it is mandatory that you call
<a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-flush" title="cairo_surface_flush ()"><code class="function">cairo_surface_flush()</code></a> before reading from or writing to the surface and that
you must use <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-mark-dirty" title="cairo_surface_mark_dirty ()"><code class="function">cairo_surface_mark_dirty()</code></a> after modifying it.

<p>
A <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a> represents an image, either as the destination
of a drawing operation or as source when drawing onto another
surface.  To draw to a <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a>, create a cairo context
with the surface as the target, using <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-t.html#cairo-create" title="cairo_create ()"><code class="function">cairo_create()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
There are different subtypes of <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a> for
different drawing backends; for example, <a class="link" href="cairo-Image-Surfaces.html#cairo-image-surface-create" title="cairo_image_surface_create ()"><code class="function">cairo_image_surface_create()</code></a>
creates a bitmap image in memory.
The type of a surface can be queried with <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-get-type" title="cairo_surface_get_type ()"><code class="function">cairo_surface_get_type()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
The initial contents of a surface after creation depend upon the manner
of its creation. If cairo creates the surface and backing storage for
the user, it will be initially cleared; for example,
<a class="link" href="cairo-Image-Surfaces.html#cairo-image-surface-create" title="cairo_image_surface_create ()"><code class="function">cairo_image_surface_create()</code></a> and <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-create-similar" title="cairo_surface_create_similar ()"><code class="function">cairo_surface_create_similar()</code></a>.
Alternatively, if the user passes in a reference to some backing storage
and asks cairo to wrap that in a <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a>, then the contents are
not modified; for example, <a class="link" href="cairo-Image-Surfaces.html#cairo-image-surface-create-for-data" title="cairo_image_surface_create_for_data ()"><code class="function">cairo_image_surface_create_for_data()</code></a> and

</p>
<p>
Memory management of <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a> is done with

Create a new surface that is a rectangle within the target surface.
All operations drawn to this surface are then clipped and translated

its bounds is drawn onto the target surface, making this a useful method
for passing constrained child surfaces to library routines that draw
directly onto the parent surface, i.e. with no further backend allocations,
double buffering or copies.

<p>
Sets an offset that is added to the device coordinates determined
by the CTM when drawing to <em class="parameter"><code>surface</code></em>. One use case for this function
is when we want to create a <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a> that redirects drawing
for a portion of an onscreen surface to an offscreen surface in a
way that is completely invisible to the user of the cairo
API. Setting a transformation via <a class="link" href="cairo-Transformations.html#cairo-translate" title="cairo_translate ()"><code class="function">cairo_translate()</code></a> isn't
sufficient to do this, since functions like
<a class="link" href="cairo-Transformations.html#cairo-device-to-user" title="cairo_device_to_user ()"><code class="function">cairo_device_to_user()</code></a> will expose the hidden offset.
</p>
<p>
Note that the offset affects drawing to the surface as well as
using the surface in a source pattern.

<p>
Set the horizontal and vertical resolution for image fallbacks.
</p>
<p>
When certain operations aren't supported natively by a backend,
cairo will fallback by rendering operations to an image and then
overlaying that image onto the output. For backends that are
natively vector-oriented, this function can be used to set the
resolution used for these image fallbacks, (larger values will
result in more detailed images, but also larger file sizes).
</p>
<p>
Some examples of natively vector-oriented backends are the ps, pdf,
and svg backends.
</p>
<p>
For backends that are natively raster-oriented, image fallbacks are
still possible, but they are always performed at the native
device resolution. So this function has no effect on those
backends.
</p>
<p>
Note: The fallback resolution only takes effect at the time of
completing a page (with <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-t.html#cairo-show-page" title="cairo_show_page ()"><code class="function">cairo_show_page()</code></a> or <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-t.html#cairo-copy-page" title="cairo_copy_page ()"><code class="function">cairo_copy_page()</code></a>) so
there is currently no way to have more than one fallback resolution
in effect on a single page.
</p>
<p>
The default fallback resoultion is 300 pixels per inch in both
dimensions.

<p>
<a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-type-t" title="enum cairo_surface_type_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_type_t</span></a> is used to describe the type of a given
surface. The surface types are also known as "backends" or "surface
backends" within cairo.
</p>
<p>
The type of a surface is determined by the function used to create
it, which will generally be of the form
<code class="function">cairo_<span class="emphasis"><em>type</em></span>_surface_create()</code>,
(though see <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-create-similar" title="cairo_surface_create_similar ()"><code class="function">cairo_surface_create_similar()</code></a> as well).
</p>
<p>
The surface type can be queried with <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-get-type" title="cairo_surface_get_type ()"><code class="function">cairo_surface_get_type()</code></a>
</p>
<p>
The various <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#cairo-surface-t" title="cairo_surface_t"><span class="type">cairo_surface_t</span></a> functions can be used with surfaces of
any type, but some backends also provide type-specific functions
that must only be called with a surface of the appropriate
type. These functions have names that begin with
<code class="literal">cairo_<span class="emphasis"><em>type</em></span>_surface</code> such as <a class="link" href="cairo-Image-Surfaces.html#cairo-image-surface-get-width" title="cairo_image_surface_get_width ()"><code class="function">cairo_image_surface_get_width()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
The behavior of calling a type-specific function with a surface of
the wrong type is undefined.
</p>

New entries may be added in future versions.

<p>
Attach an image in the format <em class="parameter"><code>mime_type</code></em> to <em class="parameter"><code>surface</code></em>. To remove
the data from a surface, call this function with same mime type
and <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> for <em class="parameter"><code>data</code></em>.
</p>
<p>
The attached image (or filename) data can later be used by backends
which support it (currently: PDF, PS, SVG and Win32 Printing
surfaces) to emit this data instead of making a snapshot of the
<em class="parameter"><code>surface</code></em>.  This approach tends to be faster and requires less
memory and disk space.
</p>
<p>
The recognized MIME types are the following: <a class="link" href="cairo-cairo-surface-t.html#CAIRO-MIME-TYPE-JPEG:CAPS" title="CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JPEG"><code class="literal">CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_JPEG</code></a>,

See corresponding backend surface docs for details about which MIME
types it can handle. Caution: the associated MIME data will be
discarded if you draw on the surface afterwards. Use this function
with care.
