JPEG Support For Libcairo

Libcairo supports several output file formats (PNG, PDF, SVG) and PNG as input format. But often it is necessary to read and write JPG files as well.

Libjpeg-turbo does all the JPEG stuff. All you have to do is to combine this with the Cairographics library. I implemented two functions in this small C source file. Most of the code is derived by the online code example of libjpeg and I modified it to fit into the Cairographics world.

Look at the comments in the source code for further information and have phun using it. Don’t hesitate to contact me!
