Deprecation Notice: pangocffi and pangocairocffi are no longer being maintained. There are no plans to officially handover ownership of the project to another maintainer. PyGObject can be used as a replacement, but will also require migrating from cairocffi to pycairo. For more information, please see the PyGObject Migration Guide.

pangocairocffi is a CFFI-based set of Python bindings for the cairo rendering methods with pango. It is meant to be used in conjunction with cairocffi and pangocffi.
