I thought of that. But the part of the code that wants to do the
rendering is already based on Quartz and is suppose to be cross
platform... I want to avoid too much Cocoa.
Also, it seems to be a potential speed hit: html -> WebView -> pdf ->
BitmapContext -> image.
But, I'm also worried that the HTML Rendering Library might be out of
date.

Hi all,
I've looked and I've come up with nothing... yet. Often, the answer
will appear after posting to a list :) For example, after starting
writing this post, I found "HTML Rendering Library". This looks like
it will let me render into a offscreen gworld but, I'd rather skip
that step.
What I want to do is to take a bit of html and render it into a
CGBitmapContextRef (or CGContextRef for that matter.)
Am I stuck working with HTML Rendering Library?
Your best best is probably to use a WebView. All NSViews implement
dataWithPDFInsideRect: which can return a PDF document for whatever is
drawn in that view. You could then draw that PDF into your
BitmapContextRef.
