We do indeed generate vector PDFs, not embedded bitmaps.

Our graphics engine works with Canvas API instructions — like "draw a line from point (A,B) to (C,D)." This API is small enough and low-level enough that it can also generate pristine vector output.

That's in fact one of the features of Skia Canvas (vector output in PDF and SVG).

Ah nice didn't know it had a PDF backend - that sounds perfect for this use case.
