Abstract: We present in this paper a simple graphical model for describing graphics using a functional language. Two-dimensional graphical scenes are represented using a recursive data type, where pictures are constructed by repeatedly composing smaller pictures together. The model is device-independent and provides the basic capabilities of a purely functional page description language. One novel aspect of the graphical model presented is its use of reference points to abstractly express the geometric... (Update)
