The blurring of the edges is a natural result of using anti-aliased
graphics, which is a way of "painting between pixels", see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-aliasing . If it for whatever reason
bothers you, you can turn it off by calling:
cairo_set_antialiased(cr, CAIRO_ANTIALIASED_NONE)
The best way of having "non-blurred" graphics at all levels is to provide
the user with vector graphics files, e.g. svg, or pdf.

Dov
