Hi, accidentally I found out, that the gtk+ team releases an "official" Windows bundle of their gtk libraries on their website and this makes it very easy to develop for gtk on Windows (before you had to download packages for every single library). I downloaded and tested their all-in-one bundle, and the cairo drivers (pdf, svg, png, ps) work out of the box, without problems. Here are the instructions:
Cairo driver in Windows or using gtk+ for plplot on Windows ======================================================== 1) Download the all-in-one bundle of the GTK+ stack including 3rd-party dependencies for windows: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.12/gtk+-bundle-2.12.9.zip available from http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html. 2) Expand the package to a directory, e.g. C:\Development\gtk 3) Set environment variables so that CMake can find pkf-config set PKG_CONFIG_PATH=C:\Development\gtk\lib\pkgconfig set PATH=C:\Development\gtk\bin;%PATH% 4) CMake will find pkg-config and all the libraries necessary to build the pdfcairo, pscairo, pngcairo and svgcairo devices. xcairo will not be built since the X-Headers are not present. That's it! I will add this instructions to the Wiki.
