Layout engine

A layout engine is a software component that combines content and formatting information for electronic or printed display. Layout engines can be found embedded in web browsers and reporting software, and included in application frameworks that support a graphical user interface.

Some applications combine layout engines with a parser that interprets markup to get their content and formatting information, such as web browsers.
