As per Behdad’s comment, previously referenced: Cairo is not an image
import/export API. There are plenty of other libraries that do that
much more extensively. Its existing PNG import/export capabilities are
good enough for simple uses, nothing more. You need more, you bring in
one of those other libraries. There is no need for a Cairo layer on top
of them.
