""" This example demonstrates the use of pcb-tools with cairo to render a composite image from a set of gerber files. Each layer is loaded and drawn using a GerberCairoContext. The color and opacity of each layer can be set individually. Once all thedesired layers are drawn on the context, the context is written to a .png file.
