WeasyPrint

WeasyPrint uses a collection of open-sourced technologies to parse a page, render its HTML content, style it with CSS and then output the final result as a downloadable PDF file.

Additionally, WeasyPrint can also output the page as a pixel-perfect PNG file as well.

What is new in this release:

• Fixed:
• ``text-decoration: overline`` not being drawn above the text
• Actually draw multiple lines when multiple values are given to ``text-decoration``.
• Use the font metrics for text decoration positioning.
• Don't clip the border with ``overflow: hidden``.
• JPEG images not loading with cairo 1.8.x.

What is new in version 0.18:

• Added support for Level 3 backgrounds, including multiple background layers per element/box.
