The 2D line and font drawing features of Quartz are not accelerated by Quartz Extreme.

People actually do that. For example: OpenGL accelerated Flash Player.

These guys draw 2D lines and fonts using OpenGL. Actually, they do all 2D UI using OpenGL.

Well good for them. However, it is impossible to achieve "svg/pdf" quality of rendering using OpenGL. That is all.

Also, I doubt they are really doing text rendering using OpenGL polygons.

What is so special about "svg/pdf" quality of rendering?

And I know for sure they are using OpenGL to render text. Small size text is rendered from bitmaps.
