<title>Introduction to Gdk Pixbuf</title>
<para>
The <application>Gdk Pixbuf</application> package is a toolkit for image
loading and pixel buffer manipulation. It is used by
<application>GTK+ 2</application> and <application>GTK+ 3</application> to
load and manipulate images. In the past it was distributed as part of
<application>GTK+ 2</application> but it was split off into a separate
package in preparation for the change to <application>GTK+ 3</application>.
