Abstract
Technologies are described herein for high-performance rasterization of a vector graphic on a server computer. A vector graphic loader receives the vector graphic and generates an intermediate data structure from the vector graphic. A vector graphic renderer receives the intermediate data structure and renders the intermediate data structure to a render surface. An imaging component encodes the contents of the render surface to a raster image in a standard image format. The vector graphic loader and the vector graphic renderer are configured for multi-threaded and multi-processor execution on a server computer, which provides high performance.
