Nyctergatis PDF Writer

NPW, or Nyctergatis PDF Writer, is an open-source C library for the creation of PDF documents.

NPW's goal is simplicity and small size, not a full implementation of PDF. It has the following features:

• less than 30 KB for basic functions
• multiple-page documents
• vector graphics
• text with the 14 standard PDF fonts
• PDF metadata
• paragraph layout with multiple fonts
• simple markup for text style

You can read the source code documentation.

Launchpad

NPW is now hosted by Launchpad, a service for open source projects that's big on collaboration.

So for any question or bug report, please come to Launchpad.
