Technical Notes: Graphics & Imaging
Quartz 2D is a modern drawing API that implements a superset of the PDF 1.4 specification. Developers can use Quartz 2D to achieve many of the same visual effects used in the Mac OS X user interface, including translucency and drop shadows. Quartz also provides low-level system services such as window buffering and composition, event handling and dispatch, display management, and text rendering. Developers can use the Quartz Services API to configure and control graphics displays and to implement remote operation protocols.
