I am using the following code to write a text on a PDF. I need to display the modified PDF page using PDFView.I cannot find a way to display the modified PDF page on the PDF View without saving the modified PDF locally and loading it from disc. Is there a way to display the PDF file in the PDF you without saving it first?
let input = getSelectedFilename()
let dstURL = URL(fileURLWithPath: "/Users/me/Downloads/out.pdf")
var pdffile=PDFDocument(url: input)
let page: PDFPage = pdffile!.page(at: 0)!
let bounds = page.bounds(for: PDFDisplayBox.mediaBox)
let size = bounds.size
var mediaBox: CGRect = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: size.width, height: size.height)
let context = CGContext(dstURL as CFURL, mediaBox: &mediaBox, nil)
let graphicsContext = NSGraphicsContext(cgContext: context!, flipped: false)
NSGraphicsContext.current = graphicsContext
context!.beginPDFPage(nil)
text.draw(in:drawrect,withAttributes:textFontAttributes);
context!.saveGState()
context!.restoreGState()
context!.endPDFPage()
NSGraphicsContext.current = nil
context?.closePDF()
var pdffile2=PDFDocument(url: dstURL)
pdfview.document=pdffile2
You can create a PDFDocument
from Data
. Use .dataRepresentation()
on your PDFDocument to get the data, and PDFDocument(data: )
to create the PDFDocument from the data.
let data = myPDFDocument.dataRepresentation()
let anotherDocument = PDFDocument(data: data)
