+ * SECTION:pango_interaction
+ * @Short_description: Using Pango in GDK
+ * @Title: Pango Interaction
+ *
+ * Pango is the text layout system used by GDK and GTK+. The functions
+ * and types in this section are used to obtain clip regions for
+ * #PangoLayouts, and to get #PangoContexts that can be used with
+ * GDK.
+ *
+ * Creating a #PangoLayout object is the first step in rendering text,
+ * and requires getting a handle to a #PangoContext. For GTK+ programs,
+ * you'll usually want to use gtk_widget_get_pango_context(), or
+ * gtk_widget_create_pango_layout(), rather than using the lowlevel
+ * gdk_pango_context_get_for_screen(). Once you have a #PangoLayout, you
+ * can set the text and attributes of it with Pango functions like
+ * pango_layout_set_text() and get its size with pango_layout_get_size().
+ * (Note that Pango uses a fixed point system internally, so converting
+ * between Pango units and pixels using <link
+ * linkend="PANGO-SCALE-CAPS">PANGO_SCALE</link> or the PANGO_PIXELS() macro.)
+ *
+ * Rendering a Pango layout is done most simply with pango_cairo_show_layout();
+ * you can also draw pieces of the layout with pango_cairo_show_layout_line().
