The Qt wrapper around the Ghostscript shared library (libqgs) relieves you from having to use special tricks to use Ghostscript in your Qt application.

You do not have to care about starting it, parsing its output, or doing weird tricks to receive the rendered pages.

This library features progressive and nonprogressive rendering of pages, error handling with exceptions support, access to Ghostscript stdio/err messages via signals and via buffer (if enabled), API documentation, and examples of use. All work is done on a QImage.

Requirements:
the Qt library
the Ghostscript shared library libgs.so, for information about getting it check the following pages depending on preferred Ghostscript licence: GPL or AFPL.

What's New in This Release:
This is the first released version.
In comparison to the unreleased code, it adds support for progressive rendering, the use of QImage all the time instead of QPixmap only when the renderer was finished, better error handling with exception support, good API documentation, and examples.
