Can I render a PDF file using Skia?

[Arko Nasipuri]

I know that Skia has a PDF backend and I can use it to render something *to* a PDF file.

But I want to do the opposite: I have a PDF file and I want to rasterize it onto an SkCanvas.

Does Skia support this? I was not able to find any Skia API that does this.

If Skia does not support this directly, is there any other open-source library that parses a PDF file and then rasterizes it using Skia?

How does chromium render PDF files?

[Cary Clark]

Chrome uses pdfium. It in turn is built on antigrain, which is no longer maintained. 

pdfium has a code path that uses Skia to draw, but the feature set required by PDF is not a good match for Skia's capabilities; that code is not complete.
