+ libLASi is a library written by Larry Siden that provides a C++
+ stream output interface for creating Postscript documents that can
+ contain characters from any of the scripts and symbol blocks
+ supported in Unicode and by Owen Taylor's Pango layout engine.
+ The library accomodates right-to-left scripts such as Arabic
+ and Hebrew as easily as left-to-right scripts. Indic and Indic-derived
+ Complex Text Layout (CTL) scripts, such as Devanagari, Thai, Lao, and
+ Tibetan are supported to the extent provided by Pango and by the
+ OpenType fonts installed on your system. All of this is provided
+ without need for any special configuration or layout calculation on
+ the programmer's part.
+ libLASi was designed for projects which require the ability to
+ produce Postscript independent of any one application framework.
