        <pre>Since cairo 1.14 the image filters changed a bit:

 - CAIRO_FILTER_GOOD uses a box filter when downscaling if the scale factor is less than 0.75, otherwise it uses a filter equivalent to CAIRO_FILTER_BILINEAR.
 - CAIRO_FILTER_BEST uses always a Catmull-Rom filter.

We are currently using CAIRO_FILTER_BILINEAR for medium, high and default interpolation levels. We could use CAIRO_FILTER_GOOD for medium and default, and CAIRO_FILTER_BEST for high. This will not have any effect in previous versions of cairo because before 1.14 CAIRO_FILTER_GOOD, CAIRO_FILTER_BILINEAR and CAIRO_FILTER_BEST had the same implementation in pixman.</pre>
