I am developing an app where I need to show PDF documents. After many hours of googling I was able to build up a view to show the PDF document fetched from a URL.

I know only to display a single page. using CGPDFDocumentGetPage(ref, pageNumber).

What I would like to have.

  1. Pagination function.
  2. Zoom
  3. Scrolling

Why not using the UIWebView instead of reinventing the wheel?

  • UIWebView according to me is not an elegant solution. It will be the last one i will be choosing. Thanks for the comment. – i.novice Jun 17 '10 at 08:54
  • What functionality do you need that web view doesn't provide? The only thing that can think about is to load/view separate pages. – Michael Kessler Jun 17 '10 at 10:52
  • other functionality UIWebView can't handle: Hyperlinks, editing the pdf, thumbnails, and CGPDF should be a more efficient (and faster load wise) solution. I am working on the poster's problem as we speak also and found this post and thought i'd add some insight into why people need CGPDF. – Jesse Naugher Aug 05 '10 at 21:45
