Whereas quad compiles directly to PDF, quad2 compiles to an intermediate drawing language, the output of which is passed to a renderer.

Toy text and bitmap renderers were made. They are not good for much.

  • The next goal is to stub out a PDF renderer ...

  • But first, it turns out that it would be useful to have a renderer that can show layouts in a quicker, more debuggable way. The best idea seems like making an HTML renderer, since it can demonstrate any PDF layout (plus the possibility of embedding debug information in page popups etc)

  • Once these two renderers are stubbed out, we can go back and start working on layout operations for text.
